BWW Blog: Tory Ross of KINKY BOOTS -The Making of a Price and Son Shoe: Part Four
Well Kinkettes (a potential name for the fans of the Broadway musical Kinky Boots... thoughts?), all good things must come to a (pro tempore) end. And thus, I give you the final installation of the making of a Price and Son shoe. Before we get to that how'er, I wanted to tell you that with months of hard work and anticipation behind us, we finally got to do our musical for a paying audience and THE RESPONSE WAS INCREDIBLE. Honestly, I've never experienced the wall of sound that erupted in our direction after our first preview. It was equal parts mind-blowing and life-altering. People are really digging our story and the house looks packed, so please buy your tickets now and join our dance party. No spoiler alert... dance party is a metaphor here. Or is it? You won't know until you see the show.
