by Musical Fan on 12/9/25Terrace Theater - Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center - Long BeachRating: 5 out of 5So much energy and joy. Performers were outstanding, I would gladly see it all over again.

The boots are back! Kinky Boots will lift your spirits to high-heeled heights! Celebrated with six Tony Awards®, including Best Musical, a Grammy Award® for Best Musical Theatre Album, and London's Olivier Award for Best Musical, this big-hearted musical hit will have you strutting out of the theater saying "Yeah!"
Kinky Boots captivates and entertains audiences around the world with the dazzling Tony-winning score by pop legend Cyndi Lauper, hilarious and uplifting book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein, and original direction and Tony-winning choreography by Jerry Mitchell.
Based on true events, Kinky Boots follows the journey of two people with nothing in common... or so they think. Charlie Price reluctantly inherits his father's shoe factory, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. Trying to live up to his father's legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of Lola, a fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. As Charlie and Lola work together to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they realized and discover that you change the world when you change your mind.
So much energy and joy. Performers were outstanding, I would gladly see it all over again.
This was the 3rd time for me seeing Kinky Boots over the year and this cast was among the Best. What a great show...Don't miss it!
Really had a great time. Great venue and an all around fantastic experience. Kinky Boots was the best.
The theater looks beautiful all decked out for the holidays. It was a great night to be outside taking pictures of the theater and inside is as beautiful. As for the show, we actually didn’t know much about the story. Loved it, from the quiet beginning to the crazy glorious ending.
Kinky Boots was a real treat. Such a positive and healing message during this turbulent time. The cast was top notch. Absolutely as good as seeing a show in NYC on Broadway. It was obvious the entire audience felt the same.
Amazing show!! such a fun message, great talent, wonderful songs, sets and costumes are beautiful!!Loved everything about it!! Will go see it again next weekend in Thousand Oaks
This would be my 3rd time seeing "KB"(previously in LA). Having it in LB was a treat, especially on my birthday. Everything was there, the energy, the great cast, and the popping music by Cindy Lauper. My only contention (and why I gave it a 4 star) was the sound system either with the torching company and/or in the Terrace Theatre is really bad! If you didn't know the lyrics to songs, you may have had a hard time hearing them over the orchestra pit. I really wish the Terrace would do something about that, because shows like this need to be heard!
This show was fantastic! It was a lot of fun! You left feeling great! In this current environment, that is a major accomplishment! I highly recommend you check it out!
This show was my first introduction to Kinky Boots. I had no idea what it was about. I absolutely loved it! The cast is all amazing and I was so invested in all their characters. I was so impressed with the level of acting and singing. I honestly could have stayed in my seat and watched the whole performance again. You could really tell that everyone involved with this show had put the time and effort into making it the fantastic show that it is. I went home and raved about it to friends. Thanks for a fantastic memory Kinky Boots!
We really liked everything about this show - the music, great singers and uplifting story line.
