Totally Tina aims to be simply the best in Whitley Bay
Tina Turner fans are being offered “The Best” when Justine Riddoch brings her tribute show to Whitley Bay.
Justine is bringing her award-winning show – Totally Tina – to Whitley Bay Playhouse on Saturday August 22, complete with her support band, dancing girls, sequins, feathers and diamonds.
Totally Tina was launched 17 years ago and is still going strong, winning a National Tribute Awards and a Lifetime Achievement accolade along the way.
Justine admits she has been observing her beloved muse from the start; constantly honing her homage to the legend herself with passion and an unrivalled attention to detail, to deliver the most authentic recreation of the rock and roll Queen’s live performances.
This year’s production is a heady mix of nostalgia and surprise with all the favourite Tina Turner hits – including Jumping Jack Flash, Honky Tonky Woman, Get Back, It’s Only Rock and Roll and The Bitch is Back have been added to a set which includes The Best, Proud Mary, Nutbush City Limits and Private Dancer – all accompanied by the customary flourish of sparkling stiletto heels, flamboyant tail feathers, high energy dance routines and musical genius.
There’s also plenty of audience engagement.
Justine, a past winner of cult talent show, Stars In Their Eyes performing as Anastacia, has been singing professionally for 30 years.
She said: “I am thrilled by the success of this production.
“We always add our own personality to the show but my ultimate aim is to remain faithful to a Tina Turner live concert paying tribute to the career of this amazing woman.”
