Following the end of its West End run,the sensational, sassy and fast-moving Kinky Boots the musical arrives to the big screen – deserving a standing ovation when it hits UK cinemas in February.
Kinky Boots is the best kind of musical film experience you can ever get the chance to witness. There are flamboyant costumes to die for, sassy drag queens taking charge and sparkling routines – culminating in a resolution that convinces you kindness and goodness will always triumph in the end.
Two worlds collide when Charlie, played by the Olivier nominee Killian Donnelly, having inherited the factory from his dad, takes over the struggling business and in a chance encounter with cross-dressing entertainer Lola (Olivier winner Matt Henry) realises the future of the factory lies in creating robust stiletto boots for men who enjoy dressing as women.
With a little compassion and a lot of understanding, this unexpected pair learn to embrace their differences and create a line of sturdy stilettos unlike any the world has ever seen. But in the end, their most sensational achievement in their unlikely friendship. This unmissable musical theatre event presents a joyous story of British grit cum raucous high-heeled hit as it transports you from the factory floor of Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan.
Based on a true story, this short run of cinema screenings will open up the uplifting tales to new audiences and create a new generation of fans, having been released as a movie 15 years ago before hitting Broadway and West End theatres for sellout runs. Filmed at the Adelphi Theatre for a night of musical madness and an ultimately heartwarming tale when it hits cinemas nationwide on February 4 & 9.
Kinky Boots will be showing in cinemas nationwide this February. Search for screenings here.
