Backwoods to Barbie: A Dolly Parton Dragaret with Ginger van der Snatch
Get ready for a rhinestone-studded night of heart, humour, and honky-tonk hits in Backwoods to Barbie, a dazzling drag cabaret celebration of Dolly Parton’s music, starring Melbourne’s American Sweetheart, Ginger van der Snatch! This unforgettable show takes you on a journey through Ginger’s life, told through the songs of the one and only Dolly. From small-town dreams to big city stages, she weaves a tale of love, resilience, and push-up bras with a voice as big as her hair and a wit as sharp as her heels.
Featuring a mix of Dolly’s greatest hits and some hidden gems, Ginger brings new life to these country classics with a storytelling flair that will have you laughing, crying, or doing that weird snotty combination of both! Whether you’re a lifelong Dolly devotee or just discovering the magic, Backwoods to Barbie is a glittering, high-energy tribute to the Queen of Country and the dreams she’s inspired. So grab your boots, tease up that hair, and join us for a night of false eyelashes, too much makeup and too much hair.
Disclaimer: this is in no way a Dolly impersonation show, Ginger is not nearly blonde or boobed enough to claim that.
