Tina Turner's phenomenal success in the 1960s and 70s masked the destructive tempest of her personal life. Now, her powerful story is laid open in Tina: The Tina Turner Musical. It features Tina's hits with a book written by the Pulitzer and Olivier Award-winner Katori Hall — a renowned chronicler of the black experience in the American South.

Also, what happens when opera and circus meet? In 2019, Opera Queensland and Circa, teamed up to reinterpret Gluck's 18th century opera Orpheus & Eurydice. The project was led by Patrick Nolan, the artistic director of Opera Queensland and Yaron Lifshitz, the artistic director of Circa. Now that production is coming to Opera Australia.
