A woman in shimmering sequins and a wild mane of hair struts across the stage in four-inch heels. Justine Riddoch did not start her career this way. Back in 2002, she won the famous show Stars In Their Eyes as the singer Anastacia. However, the world kept telling her that her voice held a grittier fire. She eventually listened and decided to bring the legend of Tina Turner back to the spotlight.
Justine spent years studying every flick of Tina’s wrist and every famous shake of her fringe. In this trailer, you can feel the soul and the grit in every high note she hits. It is a high energy explosion that makes you remember why we love the Queen of Rock ’n’ Roll.

Fans say they feel like they are back in the front row of a stadium in the eighties. One viewer mentioned that the energy is so real it makes their heart race. Another person said they have never seen anyone move with that much power since the original Queen herself.
While the lights and the big band create a dream on stage, the real story happens when the music stops. Seeing the sparkle of the gold sequins is one thing. But seeing the physical toll it takes to honor a legend is a different journey.
