STRICTLY Come Dancing star Johannes Radebe is heading for Bradford on his first UK tour.
Johannes will be at St George’s Hall on Saturday April 9, 2022 with Freedom, a celebration of music and dance, from African fusion to fiery Latin, classic dance arrangements and party anthems.
He will take the audience on his life journey, from growing up in South Africa to winning titles worldwide and starring in Strictly.
Born in the township Zamdela Sasolburg in South Africa, Johannes started dancing aged seven. He competed in local competitions, climbing up the Latin ranks and adding ballroom and other dance styles, such as African contemporary and jazz.
Aged 21, he left South Africa to work on an Italian cruise liner as a choreographer, promoted to Dance Captain. In 2018 he was invited to join the debut season of international hit show, Dancing With The Stars, in South Africa and toured the world in Burn The Floor before joining Strictly Come Dancing. His partners have included actresses Catherine Tyldesley and Caroline Quentin, and he danced the show's first same-sex routine with Graziano Di Prima.
