Broadway's Kinky Boots Plays Boston
By Charlotte Robinson, February 19, 2026
Kinky Boots on tour runs now through February 22nd at the Citizens Opera House in Boston, MA is not to be missed. The uplifting musical is based on a true story about an unlikely partnership between a struggling shoe factory owner & a drag queen that ultimately saves the family business teaching valuable lessons about acceptance & friendship. Leading the tour are Omari Collins “Scarlett D. Von'Du” as Lola, Noah Silverman as Charlie Price, Sophia Gunter as Lauren, Jason Daniel Chacon as Don, Emma Dean as Nicola & John Anker Bow as George. Dargan Cole, Felipe Cristancho-RodrĂguez, Jonathan Blake Flemings, Peyton Gaida, and Blaise Rossmann play the Angels. The Kinky Boots tour also features Carlyn Barenholtz, Connor Buonaccorsi, Brianna Clark, Blake Du Bois, Jayna Glynn, Billy Goldstein, Brandin Jay, Robert Miller, Val Moranto, Dominic Pagliaro, Thomas Ed Purvis, Kyle Williamson & Natalie Lilavois Yusty. Omari Collins as Lola anchors the production with a performance that was charismatic, polished & profoundly encouraging in these challenging times. Collins is returning to play Lola for the 7th time bringing a rich vocal presence, magnetic stage personality all while strutting in heels that made each entrance feel electric with an emphasis on heart & authenticity delivering emotional moments, especially with "Hold Me in Your Heart" a depth that really resonated throughout the theater. The original Kinky Boots was the winner of the Tony, Grammy & London’s Olivier Awards for Best Musical with the Tony Award-winning score by Cyndi Lauper, book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein & original direction & Tony-winning choreography by Jerry Mitchell.
