About

KINKY BOOTS is Broadway's huge-hearted, high-heeled hit! With songs by Grammy® and Tony® winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, this joyous musical celebration is about the friendships we discover, and the belief that you can change the world when you change your mind. Inspired by true events, KINKY BOOTS takes you from a gentlemen's shoe factory in Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan.

Charlie Price is struggling to live up to his father's expectations and continue the family business of Price & Son. With the factory's future hanging in the balance, help arrives in the unlikely but spectacular form of Lola, a fabulous performer in need of some sturdy new stilettos.

With direction and choreography by two-time Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell (Legally Blonde, Hairspray) and a book by Broadway legend and four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein (La Cage Aux Folles), KINKY BOOTS is the winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Choreography.

Take a step in the right direction and discover that sometimes the best way to fit in is to stand out. "There is no show hotter than KINKY BOOTS!" – CBS News

    by Z.Abu on 1/25/19Cadillac Palace - Chicago

    Kinky Boots was a show that absolutely blew me away. The cast was so talented and able to preform like they have known each other their entire lives. The vocal ranges of everyone absolutely blew my mind. The show has great lessons for everyone to learn and an absolute great time for all ages.

    If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would! It was absolutely amazing. The cast was perfect. I could go on and on about the show for hours, but I won't do that to anyone! It was perfect and amazing and I want to see it again.

    Channeling Jennifer Holiday

    by Iatya on 9/7/16Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Excellent show! The only surprising thing was how much stronger the Lola character voice was over the Charlie character. When Lola performed the second solo (nursing home setting), was reminiscent of Dream Girls and the Jennifer Holiday solo.

    Great Show

    by Baldymeter on 9/7/16Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    This show has been on my wife's bucket list and we were fortunate to find very good seats during the final performance in Chicago. We -- especially my wife -- thoroughly enjoyed everything! The cast, the stagecraft, the music, the singing. Everything.

    Premiere Package for Kinky Boots

    by Hearttheatre on 9/7/16Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Being able to sit in the second row to see such a wonderful play that was so very entertaining and had a message was beyond my wildest dreams!!! I am sorry that it was in Chicago for a short run but have told a lot of my friends who live out of state to be sure to attend this when this play comes to their town :).

    Everyboday Say Yeah!

    by Giantsfan72 on 9/6/16Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    This was a terrific show well worthy of the Best Musical Tony in 2013. All elements of the production were outstanding. Despite the show's title, it really is a family friendly musical with a positive message. Conservative critics who were quick to criticize the musical before seeing it would actually embrace the message of hard work makes success and treating all people fairly is the morally right thing to do. The one aspect of the experience I did not enjoy was the selling of concessions in the house. Since when did a theatre become a ballpark? Before the show and at the intermission we had people going through the house hawking drinks and candy. C'mon folks let's have a little bit of decorum. Special recognition should go to J. Harrison Ghee, Adam Kaplan and Tiffany Engen for their phenomenal work.

    Great show

    by Les114 on 9/6/16Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Both myself and my wife loved the show. The actors were great . The message in the show was awesome. The only compliant was seating was a little tight, but I am a taller male.
