Go-Bang is an English musical comedy by Adrian Ross and F. Osmond Carr. It was produced by Fred Harris and opened at the Trafalgar Square Theatre on 10 March 1894 and ran for 159 performances. The show starred Jessie Bond, Harry Grattan, Arthur Playfair, George Grossmith Jr. (the son of George Grossmith) and dancer Letty Lind. The American child prodigy "Baby Costello" danced in the interval between acts.

Go Bang had a lot of competition in London in 1894, which saw the openings of The Chieftain by Arthur Sullivan and F. C. Barnand, His Excellency by Carr and W. S. Gilbert The Lady Slavery by Crook et al. and George Dance, Little Jack Sheppard by Seymour Hicks, Mirette by Messager and Ross, and, perhaps most imoportantly, The Shop Girl by H. J. W. Dam, Ivan Caryll, Lionel Monckton and Ross.
