Hits Radio’s Fleur East is joining the cast of the hit West End production Tina – The Tina Turner Musical to play Tina Turner.
She will share the role alongside one of its current stars, Karis Anderson. The musical, which today extended booking until 10 January 2026, marks Fleur’s West End and theatrical debut as she performs in the musical from Tuesday 24 June to Saturday 13 September 2025.
Producer Tali Pelman said: “I am a huge admirer of Fleur, who has always struck me as an extraordinary woman; an exceptional talent who, like Tina Turner, will not allow herself to be defined by others.
“Fleur’s generosity, optimism, kindness and determination are all qualities that are truly Tina. She is a natural, and we are thrilled she has decided to make her stage debut in our musical. I am tremendously excited that our journey together has begun!”
The musical has been running in the West End for over 7 years, making it the longest running show ever to play at the Aldwych Theatre.
