PRESENTS HIS BRAND NEW SHOW
JOHANNES RADEBE: FINALLY HOME
TOURING THE UK FROM
1 APRIL – 13 JUNE 2027
WITH GALA PERFORMANCE AT
THE LONDON PALLADIUM
ON 9 MAY 2027
ROYO are delighted to announce that beloved dancer, Strictly Come Dancing host and star of the West End smash-hit musical Kinky Boots, JOHANNES RADEBE will tour the UK from 1 April – 13 June 2027 with a gala performance at the London Palladium on 9 May 2027.
Following three record-breaking, sold-out tours across the UK and Ireland, JOHANNES RADEBE: FINALLY HOME marks a joyful new chapter. Packed with dazzling choreography, sensational live vocals, spectacular costumes and the warmth and energy that have made him a national favourite, this unforgettable show brings together the music and moments that have shaped his journey. From ballroom classics to South African rhythms and beloved pop anthems, Finally Home is a heartfelt celebration—and everyone is invited.
2026 has been a remarkable year for JoJo. He became a British citizen, made his West End debut and stepped into his dream role as host of Strictly Come Dancing. Yet one thing remains unchanged: Johannes was born to dance.
Johannes said: “People have been asking if I won’t be dancing anymore…darling, I’m just getting started! Bringing this tour FINALLY HOME across the UK and Ireland is my way of saying thank you to everyone who has supported my journey. So come ready for joy, fun and celebration, because we’re bringing the biggest party to your town and I cannot wait to dance with you all!”
Born and talent-nurtured in Zamdela Sasolburg, Johannes Radebe started dancing at the tender age of 7, fascinated by the discipline and the glamour of Ballroom and Latin. At the age of 21, Johannes left South Africa to work on the internationally renowned Italian cruise liner Costa and in 2018, he was invited to join the debut season of the international hit show, Dancing With The Stars, in South Africa.
Johannes toured the world in international dance show Burn The Floor before being head-hunted by Strictly Come Dancing in the UK and moved to London to dance on the flagship BBC show, from which he has become the breakout star. In 2021, he was partnered with John Whaite and together reached the final in this groundbreaking same-sex partnership. Johannes and John won ‘Media Moment of the Year’ for their stunning series at the LGBT Awards and the ‘Game Changer Award’ at the Attitude Awards. Johannes was also awarded ‘The Inspirational Public Figure Award’ at the Ethnicity Awards.
His debut solo UK Tour Freedom and follow-up show Freedom Unleashed sold out across the UK, including a week in London’s West End at the Peacock Theatre, whilst his 2024 UK tour, House of Jojo, played to packed houses including 2 shows at the London Palladium.
2022 saw his film choreography debut with the feature Pretty Red Dress (Teng Teng Films, in collaboration with the BFI, BBC Film, and the Sundance Institute) which premiered at London Film Festival. In 2023, he also was asked to be a Co-Producer on the Olivier nominated A Strange Loop at The Barbican.
His first book Jojo: Finally Home was published on 7 September 2023 and became a Sunday Times best-seller. South African film company Arrested Industries run by Anthony Kimble, Argo Films and Oscar-nominated Helena Spring Films, have optioned Jojo: Finally Home for a film.
Johannes made his West End and musical theatre debut playing the iconic role of Lola in KINKY BOOTS, which toured the UK and Ireland in 2025 and is in its final weeks at the London Coliseum in the West End.
