Wowza, what a night! If you’re looking for a rockin’ good time in Portland, look no further than TINA: The Tina Turner Musical at the Keller Auditorium. This musical extravaganza had me belting out Tina’s hits all the way home!
Let’s talk about the show itself – it’s a masterpiece! From the moment the curtain rises, you’re transported into the tumultuous yet triumphant life of the legendary Tina Turner.

The cast was nothing short of sensational. The leading lady, Naomi Rodgers, who portrayed Tina Turner captured her spirit and sass perfectly, and her voice? Goosebumps galore!

The choreography and staging were perfect. The energy on stage was infectious, and I couldn’t resist both grinning ear to ear, and tearing up at several different points. The costume changes were jaw-dropping, so quick and perfectly capturing Tina’s iconic style through the years, from the glitz and glam to the leather and fringe.
But it’s not just about the glitz and the glam; TINA delves deep into Tina Turner’s personal journey, her struggles, and her ultimate triumph over adversity. It’s a reminder that life can throw curveballs, but with determination and a killer soundtrack, you can rise above anything.
