Kinky Boots Chicago | Cadillac Palace Theatre
Beginning July 2015, the new musical Kinky Boots will return to Chicago to hold a month-long run at the Cadillac Palace Theatre. Kinky Boots originally played Chicago’s Bank of America Theatre as part of its pre-Broadway tryout back in October 2013. Inspired by true events and adapted from the 2005 British film of the same name, the musical features a story and scores penned by Tony Award winner Harvey Fierstein of La Cage and Newsies fame and Grammy winning recording artist Cyndi Lauper in her first theatrical work.
The musical follows the life of Charlie Price, who was left to manage his father’s dwindling shoe factory after the later passed away. Out of nowhere, Lola, a glitzy drag queen appears and helps Charlie breathe a new life to his father’s business legacy. But more than a business partnership, their unlikely tandem also transformed a town which has fallen ill to prejudice and negativity. Find out why Kinky Boots won six Tony Awards, including Best Musical and Best Original Score, when it visits Chicago in July.
