Kinky Boots opens at the Altria Theater in Richmond.
Her name is Lola and she is a showgirl, but she doesn’t come from the Copacabana. Instead, her character is helping the owner of a struggling shoe factory breathe life into the business by producing fabulous footwear for drag queens. Set to songs penned by pop star Cyndi Lauper and a book by Broadway legend Harvey Fierstein, Kinky Boots took home six Tony awards in 2013. See it May 30 – June 4 at the Altria Theater in Richmond. Tickets $33 – $78. AltriaTheater.com
