Inspired by true events and based on the 2005 film by the same name, the original Broadway production of this musical garnered six Tony awards including Best Musical, Best Actor and Best Score for Cyndi Lauper who wrote the words and music.Kinky Boots centres on a family-owned shoe business in the UK which is financially in trouble.

The son who has taken over the business is persuaded by Lola, a drag queen, to have the factory produce a new line of shoes which would hopefully appeal to beautiful drag queens.“This Packemin production has a lot of glitz and glam.

It’s really spectacular boasting beautiful costumes and amazing shoes!” laughed Nat Jobe who plays the role of Lola. “The choreography is simply stunning, and the sets are extravagant.

In terms of a stage musical, it’s a feast for the eyes and quite a spectacle.”Jobe explained that the main reason he was drawn to this show was not only because it’s a great comedy but also because it’s really powerful. “I thought it would just be a comedic romp but what surprised me about it is that it’s really moving, and it has an incredible story at the heart of it.”The story brings two very different people from opposite worlds together who discover they share many similarities.
