Kinky Boots keep on walking

Earl Gregory as Lola in Kinky Boots.

The Fugard Theatre’s production of Kinky Boots has been extended to Sunday October 27.

This is an original production of the smash-hit musical presented by Eric Abraham and The Fugard Theatre, this is the first non-replica production of the show, and a brand-new, South African original production of this huge-hearted, smash-hit musical.

Inspired by true events, Kinky Boots was first brought to life on the big screen in 2005. It features a Tony-winning score by Cyndi Lauper and a book by four-time Tony winner, Harvey Fierstein.

Charlie Price has reluctantly inherited his father’s shoe factory, Price & Son, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. 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. There is a recommended age restriction of no under 10s.

Tickets start from R180. Book through The Fugard Theatre box office at 021 461 4554 or www.thefugard.com
