Kinky Boots is Broadway’s huge-hearted, high-heeled hit and it’s coming to London!
With songs by Grammy® and Tony® winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper, this joyous musical celebration is about the friendships we discover, and the belief that you can change the world when you change your mind.
Inspired by true events, Kinky Boots takes you from a gentlemen’s shoe factory in Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan. Charlie Price is struggling to live up to his father’s expectations and continue the family business of Price & Son. With the factory’s future hanging in the balance, help arrives in the unlikely but spectacular form of Lola, a fabulous performer in need of some sturdy new stilettos.
Kinky Boots the Musical blazed on to the Broadway scene in the spring of 2013 to
the delight of audiences and critics across America! Kinky Boots will now
transfer to London’s West End at the Adelphi Theatre from August 2015!

Tim Protty-Jones
Tim Prottey-Jones is a multi faceted musician, vocalist, actor, composer and producer. Tim was recently found playing the role of ‘Billy’ in the West End production of ‘Once’. Tim was a finalist in the hit ITV show, ‘Superstar’ where Andrew Lloyd Webber sought to find his Jesus Christ Superstar for a UK Arena Tour. As a writer, Tim will never shy away from pop sensibilities or the commercial elements that make songs memorable with hook laden, catchy choruses. This led to song placements through Sony Europe and Warner Music Nashville. With a number of albums, EP’s and various singles under his belt, Tim has a proven record of being able to write industry standard tracks in a number of styles, including: Rock, Pop, Country, Dance and Musical Theatre. The albums ‘More with every line’ and ‘Surrounded by the Sounds’ both consist of original material from two new pieces of musical theatre sung by the best voices that Broadway and London’s West End have to offer.
