KINKY BOOTS

                     Broadway comes to Winston-Salem for the first time in more than a
                     decade when the national tour of six-time Tony-winning “Kinky Boots”
                     arrives at the Stevens Center for one night only. Building on a tradition of
                     offering top-notch entertainment by professional touring artists, UNCSA
                     Presents brings us the huge-hearted, high-heeled hit with songs by
                     Grammy- and Tony-winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper.

                     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. 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.

                     Take a step in the right direction and discover that sometimes the best
                     way to fit in is to stand out.
