Non Equity Kinky Boots tour?

[Mike Barrett]

Has anyone seen this tour recently? Just got my tickets for one final viewing in Boston. Non equity tours don't scare me (like they do for some on this board) but I am curious about people's thoughts on the tour, especially since it recently played Los Angeles. Thanks in advance!

I thought it was incredible! The cast was really phenomenal and the quality of the production was excellent. It was my first time seeing the show and it certainly didn't disappoint. It was a really fun night at the theatre and I would recommend it. I hope you enjoy the show when you see it.

Is it true the kids are missing ? If so,how is the first scene done ? Might see it in Atlantic City

The kids are in fact missing. At the beginning of the show, Charlie's father walks onstage and is joined by adult Charlie who kicks a soccer ball onstage and runs after it. He instead sings to adult Charlie who speaks what would be Young Charlie's dialogue. Young Lola's part is just cut entirely.

I believe there is one fewer male & female ensemble cast member, too. I haven't found anything confirming this, but I believe the tour is closing after it tours Asia this summer.
