According to True North Touring, the hit Broadway musical Kinky Boots - featuring songs by pop icon Cyndi Lauper - is coming to CN Centre on March 22.

A ticket presale opportunity begins Wednesday at 10 a.m. (use passcode STEPONE).

Kinky Boots projects power - the spiritual power of music and the sensual power of footwear. This hit on stage was also a popular British film based on the book telling the true story of a man who inherits a shoe factory and strikes up an unlikely partnership with a cabaret performer and drag queen.

This hilarious romp earned 13 Tony Award nominations, taking home six of the coveted trophies including the all-important Best Musical as well as Best Score for Lauper.

When it was staged in London, it picked up another set of honours: three Laurence Olivier Awards.

True North Touring is the presentation company behind The Illusionists and Dirty Dancing that previously performed at CN Centre. They are also the production house behind Rain: A Tribute To The Beatles, and have connections to the Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose hockey franchises.
