Later this season he'll be one of the stars of the highly-anticipated SHUFFLE ALONG, but for now Tony-winner Billy Porter continues to add his mega-star power to the smash hit Kinky Boots. Miss Lola is looking fierce as ever.

KINKY BOOTS opened on Broadway on April 4, 2013 and went on to win six Tony Awards, including Best Musical.Kinky Boots features a Tony Award-winning score by Lauper, a book by Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein, and direction and choreography by Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell.

Now in its third year, the musical tells the uplifting and heartwarming tale of Charlie Price (currently played by Andy Kelso), a young man reluctantly taking over his family's struggling business. Charlie meets and finds inspiration in Lola (currently played by Billy Porter) and together, the unlikely pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible... and discovers that when you change your mind about someone, you can change your whole world.
