The narrative of Tumult! The Incredible Life and Music of Tina
Turner is an extended exploration of the magical transformation of shy
country girl Anna Mae Bullock into the boisterous force of nature we
know today as Tina Turner. This is creative alchemy in action: turning
into Turner is actually also the captivating tale of someone who was
already precociously there, a stellar talent just waiting to emerge and
grab the global spotlight. Far from the early myths attached to her name
by association with her talented but tormenting producer-husband, she
was not a Svengali-like creation at all, but rather a fully formed, if
vulnerable, young musical prodigy who was going to burst out of the
creative shell imposed upon her one way or the other. Even though it
took sixteen years to do so, her second career as a solo pop artist is
the achievement for which she is rightly remembered.
In
Turner, we have a case study in triumph over adversity and sheer
creative will power: singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, feminist icon.
Often referred to as the Queen of Rock and Roll, she has sold over two
hundred million records and sold more live concert tickets than any
other solo performer in history. In 2019, she celebrated her eighieth
birthday and was also lionized in the live Broadway version of her
incredible life story, Tina: The Musical, starring Adrienne Warren. In
Tumult!, we unearth and examine what uncanny skills enabled her to
connect with so many people at such a deep heart-to-heart level. She is,
in fact, a beating human heart in high heels.
