Kinky Boots is the big-hearted musical extravaganza that won six Tonys including Best Musical. The music and lyrics are by Cyndi Lauper and book by Harvey Fierstein.

Trying to live up to his father’s legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of Lola, a fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos.
