Kinky Boots in London

Starring:

Johannes Radebe

Based on a true story, Kinky Boots originated as a classic British comedy film before making its way to the stage, charming audiences from Broadway to the West End with its heartwarming, uplifting story and catchy music.

Why You Should See Kinky Boots

Did you know: Kinky Boots was inspired by the true story of Steve Pateman, who developed a line of boots for drag queens. The 2005 film is a classic British comedy, beloved by the queer community for its positive portrayal of drag queens.
The musical features music and lyrics by the iconic Cyndi Lauper, with uplifting, catchy tunes such as “Everybody Say Yeah," "Sex is in the Heel," and "Raise You Up" that will be stuck in your head for days after.
What do critics say? Stage and Cinema Magazine called it ‘a blue-collar, Cinderella story that puts its own spin on the feel-good’, Time Out called it ‘The very model of a modern major musical'. Find out for yourself if these flowing reviews do it justice!

What is Kinky Boots about?

Charlie Price inherits his family’s struggling Northampton shoe factory. But his life takes a turn when he meets Lola, a dazzling drag queen who might hold the key to saving his business and changing the way he sees himself. In this beloved and joyful queer musical, Charlie and Lola team up to create a line of sturdy, stylish boots for drag queens.

The 2005 film starring Joel Edgerton and Chiwetel Ejiofor became an instant hit for its quintessentially British comedy, and premiered as a Broadway music in 2013, with music and lyrics by pop icon Cyndi Lauper, a book by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein and directed by Nikolai Foster (Grease, The Wizard of Oz). Now the Broadway and West End phenomenon returns with a brand-new production starring Strictly Come Dancing’s Johannes Radebe as Lola.

With a gloriously catchy soundtrack, memorable characters, and inspiring themes about acceptance and overcoming adversity, this feel-good musical is sure to brighten up your day and put a smile on your face. Kinky Boots has won hearts as well as awards all over the world and now it returns to where it all started. Book now and get ready to strut your stuff at the London Coliseum.

Energetic and thought provoking

What a show!! From start to finish it was engaging. The costumes were a plethora of colour and each member of the cast brought their own personality to the show. Proudly South African to see Johannes Radebe on stage and what a presence he has. The diction for some of the songs was not always clear as the music seemed to “drown out” their words. I had an amazing seat, bought the night before in the middle of a row in the stalls. Definitely not a show for young children as the language and underlying story line are for adults.

Disappointed

I know you cannot guarantee that Johannes will be playing Lola, but we booked tickets for a Friday evening in good faith hoping that he would be on that night. When Lola appeared and it wasn’t Johannes you could sense the disappointment in the audience but obviously the understudy was excellent and it made for an enjoyable show, but I had been looking forward to this for months and months and absolutely adore Johannes. We googled his absence in the interval and it states very clearly that he does not appear on Mondays and Fridays but that wasn’t made known to my husband when he put the tickets prior to Christmas so if you’re expecting to see Johannes don’t book a Monday or a Friday! Some of the acting was a bit wooden at times.

I found it difficult to hear what was being said, ironically it’s was easier when they sang. The story line is rather lame and the first half was a lot of padding really. Second half better with the best music. All the stars of the show were very good, they just need a better storyline and show to excel….
