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.

This show was so funny and charming. The music is great and the voices were unbelievable. A great show.
Musicians were wonderful - would be nice if they interacted with the audience.
The show has been out for years and though curious, I never got to see it. Finally saw it the day after Thanksgiving and I have say my family and I enjoyed it a lot. it was fun! the story was uplifting and the songs were good
Absolutely fantastic. One of the best shows I’ve ever seen!!! Entertained the entire time
I saw this show in San Jose a few years ago, knowing next to nothing about it except the basic premise. I loved it so much I immediately bought the soundtrack, and have been listening to it frequently ever since. When I found out the show was coming back, I immediately got tickets. I enjoyed it so much more the second time, knowing all the songs and the story. The music is great, and the message is so appropriate, especially for these times we're living in. Scarlett D. Von'Du did an absolutely wonderful job as Lola, and the rest of the cast was great too. "Raise You Up/Just Be"was the standout song, as I expected--so joyous, so positive, it just had me grinning. It's not often I feel that *happy*. So, thanks for a great show! If it comes back to San Jose again, I'll be there!
So fun. Se well done with excellent talent. A great night!
Best show ever! Everyone was just fabulous! Love all the music
The show was phenomenal! I absolutely loved it. I don't get to go see shows very often because they're expensive, of course. So, I love to collect playbills. I frame every single one that I get. I was very sad that they were out of playbills :(
Amazing performance! Great cast, Great set and costumes! My son is still raving over the show.
