Kinky Boots - 2013 Broadway History , Info & More


KINKY BOOTS is the winner of every major BEST MUSICAL award, including the Tony, the Grammy and London’s Olivier Award. Based on true events, this huge-hearted hit tells the story of two people with nothing in common -- or so they think! Charlie is a factory owner struggling to save his family business. Lola is a fabulous entertainer with a wildly exciting idea. With a little compassion and a lot of understanding, this unexpected pair learns to embrace their differences and creates a line of sturdy stilettos unlike any the world has ever seen! But in the end, their most sensational achievement is their friendship.

Featuring 16 original songs by CYNDI LAUPER, a book by HARVEY FIERSTEIN, and direction and choreography by JERRY MITCHELL, this joyous sensation "struts its stuff with sparkle, stilettos and heart!" (Sydney Morning Herald). There’s never been a better time to experience KINKY BOOTS, Broadway’s "dazzling, sassy and uplifting" (Time Out) smash!
