Show Pony
Ginger Johnson
Ginger Johnson

You’ve seen her in the MasterChef kitchen… You’ve seen her on the Drag Race runway… Now it’s time to see her in her element: outrageous, untamed and completely off the reins.

Following the explosive success of her smash hit 2024 tour Ginger Johnson Blows Off!, the nation’s silliest sausage is back on the road with her brand new live spectacular: Show Pony!

Promising high camp, low morals, and double helpings of her trademark ridiculousness, Show Pony is a barnstorming night of whip-smart comedy and top-tier talent that proves why Ginger is one of Britain’s most beloved queens.

The Corn Exchange Newbury

The Corn Exchange Trust manages four key spaces; the Corn Exchange which includes a 400 seat auditorium, a 40 seat independent cinema and a Cafe and Bar; 101 Outdoor Arts: National Centre for Arts in Public Space – a unique outdoor arts creation centre for the development of large-scale outdoor performances, making and rehearsal space and on-site accommodation; their centrally located Learning Centre in which workshops and courses for all ages take place; and The Base Greenham, a visual arts gallery and workshop space on Greenham Business Park which is also home to 8 resident artists.

The performance programme at the Corn Exchange has developed considerably in recent years.

They present a mixed programme of theatre, dance, comedy, music, family, film and outdoor work to audiences from across the South East.

The emphasis is on presenting shows of the highest quality and films that inspire and entertain audiences, with attendance growing year on year.

The Trust produces its own pantomime in-house, as well as supporting a range of artists and companies across all art-forms through commissioning and development opportunities, mentoring and production support.

Their emphasis is on presenting great shows and films that audiences really want to come and see and that reflect the rich diversity of our country today.

Always high quality, they’re really proud that their attendance figures are growing year on year.
