Adrian, MI – The musical ‘Kinky Boots’ will hit the Croswell Opera House stage starting this weekend.

A chance meeting between the owner of a struggling shoe factory and a London drag queen leads to an unlikely and life-changing alliance.

‘Kinky Boots’ is the story of two men from very different walks of life brought together by shoes.

The musical is based on a true story and on the 2005 British film of the same name. It premiered in Chicago in 2012 and opened on Broadway the following year, winning six Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Original Score. It was originally slated to be part of the Croswell’s 2020 season before it was canceled by the pandemic.

Performances run this weekend and next. Dates, times, and ticket information can be found at croswell.org.

The Croswell, a 640-seat historic theater, is on East Maumee Street in downtown Adrian.
