Charlie Price has reluctantly inherited his father's shoe factory, 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.

March is Women's History Month, and the theme for 2025 is 'Moving Forward Together! Women Educating & Inspiring Generations'. For 31 days, we celebrate the trials and successes of the women before us that paved the way towards equal rights among men. there are many Leading Ladies throughout Broadway history (Ethel Merman, Angela Lansbury, Vanessa Williams to name a few), it wasn't until 2003 that there was a musical featuring two female leads without a credited male lead. That musical was Wicked starring Kristin Chenoweth and Idina Menzel. This paved the way for musicals like Legally Blonde, 9 to 5, Heathers, and Suffs.

Thank you for the review, @mdtheatreguide!

"The time seems to zip right by until, sadly, we are at the end. Many in the audience didn’t want it to be over and just stood there hoping for more. Sadly, many states in this country today have laws that would prevent productions of “Kinky Boots.” We are lucky that, here in Maryland, we get a chance to share this joy and maybe learn a bit about others who are not like us—and a little about how we are all really the same."

Second review! "Kinky Boots demands a diva performance, divine dance moves, daring dresses, and working-class heart. This production delivers every bit of that and more."
