Kinky Boots, the West End’s latest hit musical, has extended its booking period until Saturday 24 September 2016 at the Adelphi Theatre.
Staring Killian Donnelly and Matt Henry, Kinky Boots has become a favourite with UK theatregoers having won the Evening Standard BBC Radio 2 Audience Award for Best Musical and been nominated for 9 What’s On Stage Awards, including Best West End Show and Best New Musical.
With a book by Broadway legend and four-time Tony® Award-winner Harvey Fierstein (La Cage Aux Folles), and songs by Grammy® and Tony® winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, this joyous musical celebration is about the friendships we discover, and the belief that you can change the world when you change your mind.
Inspired by true events, Kinky Boots takes you from a gentlemen’s shoe factory in Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan. Charlie Price (Killian Donnelly) is struggling to live up to his father’s expectations and continue the family business of Price & Son. With the factory’s future hanging in the balance, help arrives in the unlikely but spectacular form of Lola (Matt Henry), a fabulous performer in need of some sturdy new stilettos.
With direction and choreography by two-time Tony® Award-winner Jerry Mitchell (Legally Blonde,Hairspray), Kinky Boots is the winner of six Broadway Tony® Awards including Best Musical, Best Score and Best Choreography.
