Kinky Boots opens April 25!

The Tony Award winning best musical is coming to West Potomac High School.

Beyond the Page Theatre Company at West Potomac High School is thrilled to announce our spring musical production of Kinky Boots, in collaboration with FCPS Pride, running April 25 - May 4.

Charlie Price has reluctantly inherited his father's shoe factory, which is on the verge of bankruptcy. Trying to live up to his father's legacy and save his family business, Charlie finds inspiration in the form of Lola, a fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy stilettos. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely pair find that they have more in common than they realized... and discover that when you change your mind, you can change your whole world.

Based on the 2005 film and inspired by a true story, Kinky Boots features a joyous score by pop icon Cyndi Lauper and a hilarious, uplifting book by four-time Tony winner Harvey Fierstein. Winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical, the Grammy for Best Musical Theatre Album, and London’s Olivier Award for Best Musical, Kinky Boots is a big-hearted musical extravaganza that will have you dancing in the aisles.
