by Jessica Steinweg I didn't really know what to anticipate, the first time that I saw Kinky Boots . I'd heard from friends that it's a fun show; and my stepmother once told me that it was one of the best shows she'd ever seen . Aside from that feedback, I hadn't known what to expect.

Charlie Price is struggling to live up to his father's expectations and continue the family business of Price & Son.
