The List
Join comedian, crash mat and winner of Drag Race UK Ginger Johnson as she swaps her stilettos for safety goggles and takes a death-defying leap from the runway to the real world.

Expect big hair, big heart and big laughs as Britain’s ditziest daredevil takes on her biggest challenge yet and asks the question: just how far will she go for a round of applause?

Bursting with stunning looks and cunning stunts, GINGER JOHNSON BLOWS OFF! is a hilarious new show about taking risks, pushing yourself and living up to expectations.

Written, directed, and performed by Ginger, with original songs by cabaret legends Bourgeois and Maurice, showcasing 80’s power ballads and jaw-dropping glamour.

Not for the faint of fart.
