Religious Roots Tangle with the Groovy ’60S - the New York Times
'Kinky Boots' Sets April 4 Broadway Opening - NYTimes.com AUGUST 15, 2012, 3:13 PM ‘Kinky Boots’ Sets April 4 Broadway Opening By PATRICK HEALY "Kinky Boots," one of the most anticipated musicals of the new Broadway season, with Cyndi Laupermaking her debut as a songwriter for the stage, will begin performances on March 5, 2013, at the Al Hirschfeld Theater and open on April 4, the producers announced on Wednesday. Based on a 2005 British filmabout a shoe factory heir who enlists a drag queen to help save the family business, "Kinky Boots" will star the Tony Award nominee Stark Sands ("Journey's End," "American Idiot") as the scion Charlie and Billy Porter (Belize in the Off Broadway revival of "Angels in America") as the resourceful Lola. The show's book writer is Harvey Fierstein, who won a Tony for his book for "La Cage aux Folles" and was nominated in the category last season for the Broadway musical "Newsies." Ms. Lauper, a Grammy-winning pop icon of the 1980s, has written the music and lyrics for the production, which will have an out-of-town run in Chicago this fall. Jerry Mitchell will direct, and the lead producers are Daryl Roth and Hal Luftig. Like "Kinky Boots," most of the new Broadway musicals expected this season are inspired by movies or books; the others include "Bring It On," "Rebecca," "A Christmas Story," "Matilda," "Diner," and "Hands on a Hardbody." http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/08/15/kinky-boots-sets-april-4-broadway-opening/?pagewanted=print[8/16/2012 9:52:02 AM] Religious Roots Tangle With the Groovy ’60s - The New York Times August 15, 2012 THEATER REVIEW Religious Roots Tangle With the Groovy ’60s By JASON ZINOMAN Wearing a bushy beard and the absent-minded expression of a father preoccupied with work at the dinner table, Eric Anderson, who plays the Jewish singer Shlomo Carlebach in the bio-musical “Soul Doctor,” appears smaller than life.

Education Resource Guide “This Has Something to Offer for Everyone from All Walks of Life.”
DIRECTED & BOOK BY MUSIC & LYRICS BY CHOREOGRAPHED BY HARVEY CYNDI JERRY FIERSTEIN LAUPER MITCHELL BASED ON THE MIRAMAX MOTION PICTURE KINKY BOOTS, WRITTEN BY GEOFF DEANE & TIM FIRTH EDUCATION RESOURCE GUIDE “THIS HAS SOMETHING TO OFFER FOR EVERYONE FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE.” "The story of KINKY BOOTS has a lovely subtext that not only makes you think, but connects on so many levels. I believe that as far as a piece of theatre goes, it has something to offer for everyone, from all walks of life. Theatrical education programs are vital in ensuring our young people are exposed to quality theatre that inspires on two levels; as audience members wanting to be entertained and as future artists and producers themselves. Being able to do this and have them exposed to exceptionally high quality productions at affordable prices is so important. I hope New South Wales students, like Victorian students, have an opportunity to experience this production, to be both thoroughly entertained, and to engage with the important issues it raises.” Joel Batalha Head of Senior School Brentwood Secondary College, Victoria 2 WELCOME CONTENTS School Implementation Plan ..................................................................................................................4 The Story ....................................................................................................................................................5 Cast & Creatives ......................................................................................................................................6
