When is Kinky Boots The Musical coming to cinemas in Dublin and how can I get tickets?

The award-winning Kinky Boots The Musical is coming to cinemas in Dublin.

The movie will be screened across cinemas in the capital on February 4 and 9.

Kinky Boots The Musical is based on a book by legendary Broadway playwright Harvey Fierstein and has songs from from Grammy and Tony award winning pop icon Cyndi Lauper.

The synopsis of the film reads: “Inspired by true events, this huge-hearted hit tells the story of two people with nothing in common – or so they think. Charlie (Killian Donnelly) is a factory owner struggling to save his family business, and Lola (Matt Henry) is a fabulous entertainer with a wildly exciting idea.

"With a little compassion and a lot of understanding, this unexpected pair learn to embrace their differences and create a line of sturdy stilettos unlike any the world has ever seen!  But in the end, their most sensational achievement is their friendship.

“This unmissable musical theatre event celebrates a joyous story of British grit transforming into a high-heeled hit as it takes you from the factory floor of Northampton to the glamorous catwalks of Milan!”

Harvey Fierstein said: “Since the first performance of Kinky Boots, hardly a day has passed without my receiving a thank you message from someone whose spirits were raised up by the show.

"Kinky Boots has been playing in big cities all over the world but now, thanks to this film capture, it will reach people wherever there are cinemas. I am beyond excited!”

Tickets to the show are now available and can be found here.
