Jojo Summary

Jojo: Finally Home - My Story by Johannes Radebe

Champion dancer and Strictly Come Dancing professional Johannes Radebe has captured our hearts with his mesmerising talent, bringing joy to millions of fans and wowing the most critical of judges. He is loved not only for his dancing, but for his beautiful, infectious spirit and energy.

Jojo: Finally Home is his never-before-told story, where he shares the experiences and challenges he's faced - from growing up in Zamdela, a township in South Africa, as a young boy with a passion for dance (and playing with Barbies), to becoming the star he is today. Dance transformed Jojo's future, giving him a tool to express himself - but as you will learn, this was not always easy.

Captivating and moving, these are Jojo's tales of euphoric highs and all-time lows, of making history, of grief, love, family and opportunity. It is a celebration of him finally feeling at home in his own skin. These are the personal moments that have shaped him into the man he is today - someone who lives life to the full and believes that no mountain is insurmountable.

In 2016, he joined South Africa's Dancing With The Stars, making the final for two years running. In 2018, he joined Strictly Come Dancing in the UK and in 2021, he was partnered with John Whaite - reaching the final and winning 'Media Moment of the Year' at the British LGBT Awards. Jojo has since had success with two critically acclaimed UK solo tours, Freedom (2022) and Freedom Unleashed (2023). His film choreography debuted at the BFI London Film Festival with Pretty Red Dress (2022), and he is currently a co-producer of the Pulitzer Prize-winning musical A Strange Loop (Barbican, 2023).
