With music and lyrics by pop music icon Cyndi Lauper and a book by noted Broadway writer and performer Harvey Fierstein, "Kinky Boots" won 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 gives up his dreams of living in London when he inherits his father’s struggling shoe factory in Northern England. 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! Finding they have more in common than they thought, Lola and Charlie work together to turn things around, discovering their most sensational achievement is their friendship.

The show teaches life lessons about finding one’s passion and finding value in people different from ourselves.About the Theatre
