19/20 Art On Screen

Big-hearted and high-spirited, this West End musical tells the true story of Charlie Price, the new owner of his late father's Northampton shoe factory. Trying to live up to his dad's legacy and save the family business from bankruptcy, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of Lola, an entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible … and discovers that when you change your mind, you can change the world.

The uplifting tale of success against the odds was first brought to life on the big screen in 2005, with Oscar-nominated actor Chiwetel Ejiofor starring as the spectacular Lola. With a book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein and music and lyrics by pop icon Cyndi Lauper, a musical adaptation premiered in Chicago in October 2012. Kinky Boots made its Broadway debut in April 2013, going on to win a season-high 13 Tony Award nominations, winning 6 (including Best Musical and Best Score).

From the factory floor to the glamorous catwalks of Milan, Kinky Boots reminds us that sometimes the best way to fit in … is to stand out!
