Based on the Miramax motion picture written by Geoff Deane and Tim Firth, Kinky Boots features a Tony-winning score by Lauper and a book by Tony winner Harvey Fierstein. The original Broadway production, directed and choreographed by Jerry Mitchell, played 2,507 regular performances and 34 previews at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, from 2013 to 2019. The international hit won six 2013 Tony Awards, including Best Musical.

The tour also has direction re-created by DB Bonds, choreography re-created by Rusty Mowery, music supervision by Will Van Dyke, and casting by Murnane Casting. The tour production manager is Nate Coffey.

The creative team also includes arranger and orchestrator Stephen Oremus, scenic designer David Rockwell, costume designer Gregg Barnes, lighting designer Kenneth Posner, sound designer Gareth Owen, and hair designer Josh Marquette.

The original Broadway company of Kinky Boots was headed by Billy Porter as indefatigable drag performer Lola, whose broken heel helps mend a broken wing for a foundering shoe-maker, originally played by Stark Sands. Both Porter and Sands were Tony-nominated for their performances; Porter won the Tony for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical, and Mitchell won his second career Tony Award for his choreography.
