Multi-Award winning Gina Yashere returns to her hometown for three nights only at the big purple upside-down cow at Southbank. A true headline act the world over, Gina is back with a brand new show (and a couple of classic stories) this May, discussing why she feels cheated, that despite losing 5 stone in weight she has still been recently diagnosed with sleep apnoea, being mugged in Malaysia and believing she was targeted in error, her slight OCD and discomfort with hole in the floor toilets in the Far East and her experiences as a voyeur on Gay Boy cruises. There is something in there for everybody - come and find yours!

A former lift engineer, Gina made her comedy debut at the Edinburgh Festival in 1996 and went on to sell out shows in the UK, Japan, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia, Canada, South Africa, Europe and America where she reached the final 10 on NBC’s Last Comic Standing. She has since gone on to appear on various American shows such as The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, Def Comedy Jam (HBO), Comics Unleashed (ABC), and a regular appearance as a crap psychic on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno (NBC). She has also had her own 1 hour stand up special airing on Showtime.

On this side of the pond, you will have seen Gina on everything from The Lenny Henry Show to Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, Celebrity Fame Academy and, most recently, Don’t Sit in the Front Row and Celebrity Come Dine With Me. She also played a principle role in ITV’s Married Single Other in 2010. Her movie credits include Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Mr In Between, and she has starred on the West-End stage in The Vagina Monologues. After losing 5 stone, Gina released her critically acclaimed DVD Skinny Bitch in 2009 and Laughing to America, recorded in 2012 at the Brava Theater Centre, San Francisco, to a sold-out audience, out now on general release in the UK.
