A firm favourite with West End audiences Kinky Boots is the recipient of every major Best Musical Award having won the Olivier Award and Tony Award amongst others.

Inspired by true events, Kinky Boots tells the story of Charlie Price, who is struggling to save his family shoe factory. Help arrives in the form of Lola, a fabulous performer in need of sturdy new stilettos. It's a musical about friendship and the belief that you can change the world when you change your mind.

Kinky Boots currently stars David Hunter as Charlie Price and Simon-Anthony Rhoden as Lola.

Kinky Boots features a book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein and songs by Grammy and Tony winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper. Kinky Boots is directed and choreographed by two-time Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell.

To celebrate its 1000th performance tonight, Kinky Boots has extended its run in the West End until Saturday 30 June 2018.

Kinky Boots will also tour the UK starting in 2018.
