At tonight's performance of KINKY BOOTS, we welcome Marcelle LaBrecque into the role of Simon/Lola. Unfortunately, Justin Allen Tate is facing some health complications that render him unable to perform the show this evening. We hope everyone joins us in both welcoming Marcelle into the company and sending well wishes to Justin Allen Tate for a speedy recovery.

Marcelle LaBrecque has performed the role of Simon/Lola in the United States and in the United Kingdom. We thank them for jumping into the show so quickly and are thrilled to be presenting KINKY BOOTS for our final audiences this weekend.

SOCK IT TO 'EM!

Tickets are on sale for KINKY BOOTS playing at Thalian Hall from December 30 -January 15. Based on true events, this huge-hearted hit tells the story of two people with nothing in common — or so they think. Charlie is a factory owner struggling to save his family business. Lola is a fabulous entertainer with a wildly exciting idea. With a little compassion and a lot of understanding, this unexpected pair learns to embrace their differences and creates a line of sturdy stilettos unlike any the world has ever seen! But in the end, their most sensational achievement is their friendship.

Don't miss your chance to see this ~fabulous~ production - or you might get a swift punch from Lola! Tickets at www.OperaHouseTheatreCompany.org.
