A spokesman for the show said: “As everyone is aware, due to Government advice theatres and venues across the UK have had to take the decision to close. This inevitably affects our shows and therefore What’s Love Got To Do With It? has had to be rescheduled.
“We apologise for any inconvenience this causes and we hope you can join us on the rescheduled date.”
The show celebrates Turner’s 60-year career, and is led by the team behind the similar production Whitney - Queen Of The Night.

Speaking to Graham Norton in 2018, she said: "We had the greatest show, it was really wonderful. But the next day... I took a deep breath and said 'This is it, I'm not going back for anything'."
