Kinky Boots - London Theatre Breaks with Included Coach Travel
When gentlemen's brogues are no longer in vogue, what is a cobbler to do? Faced with bankruptcy due to competition from foreign sources, one small village's shoe factory owner embarks on a daringly different business strategy - ladies' shoes in men's sizes for the drag queen! First revealed in a BBC TV documentary back in 1999, the tale of W.J. Brooks Ltd of Earls Barton, Northampton and its startling move into fetish footwear under the "Divine" brand inspired a successful 2005 film starring Joel Edgerton, Nick Frost and Oscar-nominated Chiwetel Ejiofor. From there, it became a smash-hit, multiple Tony-award-winning Broadway show with an original score by Cyndi Lauper.
