Hear that clacking of boots? It's the triumphant Off-Broadway Kinky Boots! After enjoying a six-year run at the Al Hirschfield Theatre, Cyndi Lauper and Harvey Fierstein's gloriously open-hearted spectacle made a much-anticipated return to New York summer of last year. Since then the dazzling musical continues to give audiences a chance to feel the love!
Featuring 21 original songs from Lauper, a zinging book from Fierstein, and dazzling choreography and direction from Jerry Mitchell, Kinky Boots first opened back in 2013, where its message of friendship and acceptance bowled over audiences and critics alike, leading to international productions and Tony, Olivier, and Grammy wins. Bursting with positivity and inclusivity, it remains the perfect musical for today.
What's the story?
Set in Northampton, England, London-bound Charlie Price is surprised to suddenly inherit his beloved father's shoe factory and even more surprised to find that handmade men's dress shoes are no longer quite as in vogue as they used to be. Facing closure, a dejected Charlie takes a chance on Lola, the charismatic, brassy, and fabulous drag queen and finds himself forming an unlikely business partnership, creating custom shoes for drag queens, which will change their lives forever...
Did you know?
Kinky Boots is based on the 2005 film starring Joel Edgerton and Chiwetel Ejiofor but that in turn was based on the true story of family-run shoe factory W.J. Brooks Ltd that fought to save their business by creating fetish footwear for men under the name 'Divine Footwear'.
