GroupVerified bookingJun 20265/5I genuinely didn’t expect to leave this show feeling as emotional as I did. Kinky Boots is everything a West End musical should be — big, bold, funny, and surprisingly moving. The story of Charlie and Lola is one of those rare ones that manages to be completely feel-good without ever feeling shallow. The performances are incredible, the Cyndi Lauper songs are an absolute banger from start to finish, and the costumes? Stunning. The Angels in those red boots alone are worth the ticket price. But what really got me was the heart of it. “Not My Father’s Son” hit differently than I expected and I’m not ashamed to say I teared up. By the finale the whole audience was on their feet and honestly, same. If you haven’t seen it — go. You’ll leave the theatre walking taller. Guaranteed!FFrancesca P
CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5It was amazing—everyone was so talented, the set design was incredible, not to mention the costumes and choreography. I was blown away—it was wonderful. Too bad it ends on July 5; I would have loved to see it again. The singing was incredible—I was blown away.SSelina A
CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5I somehow managed to book two seats in different rows and didn't realise until we were about to go into the theatre. Fortunately we were able to upgrade our seats directly with the box office, so were able to sit together. The show was fantastic - a proper feel good experience with a wholesome message about authenticity and acceptance. We loved it all - the songs were catchy, the costumes were superb and the performances were amazing!JJames H

Sadly our train from Glasgow was delayed 5 hours and we missed our performance and had to pay again for tickets the following evening, very disappointed that we couldn't get a full refund or tickets transferred, a lot of money 3 tickets!we got 30% back which went to 'headout' to be used in the next year !

The cast were truly professional, they kept the audience captured, from start to finish. How they managed to transfer the film to stage was outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful evening.
