Ginny Lemon - Huntingdon Hall
It's been a big year for Worcester's favourite Drag Queen.
After appearing on Season two of RuPaul's Drag Race Uk, Ginny released their new album called Tonic this year. And fans were treated to songs like 'biscuits', 'I Am over My Overdraft', and 'Mailman.'
The Drag Queen performed excerpts of their new album at Huntingdon Hall on Thursday, July 30.
Ginny, who used to work at Huntingdon Hall, said 'Wozza' was a special place for them and revealed that their new album was written in Worcester.
"I tend to only write when I'm home, I need the spiritual energy of shire to keep me going".
Fans may remember Ginny floating around Alexander Stadium in a giant yellow lemon-shaped hot air balloon during the Commonwealth opening ceremony on July 28.
Ginny wowed fans with their popular catchphrase 'fancy a slice.'
