Kinky Boots
If you're looking for a high energy and exciting show, your best bet would be to see Kinky Boots! This thrilling show has everything and more to make it the perfect experience to go and see. Between its outstanding lighting, choreography, acting, and music, you will never get bored. There’s constantly something new to see. There’s never a dull moment in this play!
The plot of the story centers around a young man named Charlie Price, whose father unfortunately passed away and left him in charge of his father’s failing shoe company. He refuses to shut the company's doors and has to come up with an idea fast. After one fateful night in a dark alley, Charlie comes across Lola, a drag queen at the local night club.
Lola's spectacular high heels break and he comes to realization that the heel cannot support the weight of a full-grown man, so he decides to change these shoes for the better.
He turns his factory around; taking a production facility for old-school loafers and transforming it into a high-end boot factory for drag queens. The underlying theme constantly shown throughout the show is to express yourself and be true to who you are, regardless of what anyone else thinks.
Six points that are constantly repeated throughout the show are…
- Pursue the truth
- Learn new things
- Accept yourself and accept others
- Let love shine
- Let pride be your guide.
- You can change the world when you change your mind
This show is great for most audiences, from teens to adults! There’s some crude humor that may not be suitable for a younger audience, but regardless, it’s truly an awe-inspiring and amazing show!
