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.

Went to see Kinky Boots on the first Preview night & I have to say, "WOW!!" Not only are all the cast members incredible but the music is just fantastic! (Of course, music & lyrics were written by none other than Cyndi Lauper)! Totally loved it! Anyone who is just thinking about seeing it, just do it! Go & you will see that you will not be disappointed!
This is a fun play but since it was a Cyndi Lauper/Harvey FIerstein production I expected it to be more amazing than it was. I did enjoy the drag queens.. they were dressed fabulously!! The singing wasn't the best I've seen and at times the songs were too long. The plot of the play was great and had a good message. Overall I would recommend it. (Our seats were in the balcony.... I don't recommend them)
Great show even for opening night previews. There are a couple isues that need to be worked out, however i do want to see it again!
What a wonderful musical--heart-warming, fun and fabulous costumes!
KINKY BOOTS was incredible!! So good I am going back with someone who has not seen it yet. CYNDI LAUPER'S score was sooo good she really knows what she is doing. Hope she does more scores for plays in the future because the stage was alive. Billy Porter was remarkable. His voice, he opened his mouth and BAM! The story itself was very inspiring. Good for people of all ages, cultures ect.
