Kinky Boots
Kinky Boots musical tickets: a red hot night out!
Everybody say yeah! The multi-award-winning Kinky Boots musical struts back into London in a dazzling new production, with Strictly Come Dancing star Johannes Radebe stepping into red-hot heels of the fabulous Lola. Playing at the iconic London Coliseum for a strictly limited season, this high-energy revival promises to raise the roof with its blend of irresistible pop anthems, heart, and humour.
When Charlie Price inherits his family’s struggling shoe factory, he’s on the verge of losing both the business and his relationship – until a chance meeting with Lola, a larger-than-life drag queen with an outrageous sense of style, changes everything. Together, they hatch a bold plan to turn the factory’s fortunes around by producing a line of fabulous, thigh-high boots sturdy enough to weather the wear and tear of drag artist life… and maybe light up a few fashion weeks too. Along the way, they discover that they can help each other, and those around them, stand a little taller.
Winner of the Olivier Award for Best New Musical and based on the uplifting true story and hit film, Kinky Boots features Tony and Grammy Award-winning music and lyrics by pop legend Cyndi Lauper and a hilariously sharp book by Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein, whose stage and screen credits include Torch Song Trilogy, La Cage aux Folles, Hairspray, and Fiddler on the Roof.
This new staging is directed by award-winning Nikolai Foster (Grease, The Wizard of Oz) and features show-stopping choreography, bold design, and the uplifting message that has made Kinky Boots a global hit. Following its UK tour, which saw packed out audiences on their feet at curtain call, it now comes back to the West End for the first time since 2018. Johannes Radebe is a bonafide sensation as Lola, in a stage debut that’s received standing ovations up and down the country. Further Kinky Boots musical casting is to be confirmed.
A glorious celebration of friendship, individuality, and self-acceptance, the Kinky Boots musical at the London Coliseum is set to be one of the must-see theatre events of 2026, bursting with sass, sparkle, and soul. Get ready to cheer, clap, and maybe even dance in your seat as Lola and Charlie prove that you can change the world when you change your mind!
