Of the Australian cast, Jerry Mitchell said: "Since Kinky Boots began on Broadway we've opened productions in London, Toronto, Seoul and on tour across the US and this is without doubt one of the strongest casts we've ever put together. Aussie audiences will be blown away - as we were in the audition room!"

Kinky Boots centres on a down-at-heel English shoe factory run by Charlie Price that is given fabulous new life after a chance encounter with Lola, an entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. Sydney-based singer, writer and musical theatre performer Toby Francis will play Charlie. A member of the internationally renowned Australian music ensemble The Ten Tenors, Toby was recently seen in Dogfight at Sydney's Hayes Theatre Co.
