Despite what it sounds like, the kinkiest thing about this musical is the name of it and the boots they end up creating. (as one of the songs says “The sex is in the heel”). While there is some suggestive dialogue, there is no nudity or any sexual situations shown.

Inspired by true events, the musical tells the story of Charlie Price. Having inherited a shoe factory from his father, Charlie, needs to diversify his product if he wants to keep the business going. He forms an unlikely partnership with cabaret performer and drag queen Lola to produce a line of high-heeled boots and comes to the rescue.

Cyndi Lauper was the first woman to win a Tony Award alone for the music she wrote for Kinky Boots?

At the end of the day, Kinky Boots is about acceptance – accepting yourself and accepting other people for who they are: the importance of kindness, understanding, and friendship. What better lesson would you want to teach your child? It also addresses bullying and that’s sadly an issue so many kids face now.

WARNING: THIS MUSICAL IS ONLY SUITABLE FOR 12+ YEARS.
