The UK premiere of Kinky Boots, the feel-good multi award-winning musical, will
open in the West End on 15 September at the Adelphi Theatre, with previews from
21 August 2015. With a book by four-time Tony Award-winner Harvey Fierstein,
music and lyrics by pop icon Cyndi Lauper, and direction and choreography by
two-time Tony Award-winner Jerry Mitchell, Kinky Boots won the 2013 Tony Award
for Best Musical, and the 2014 Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album.
Inspired by a true story and based on the Miramax film written by Geoff Deane
and Tim Firth, Kinky Boots tells the story of Charlie Price who has reluctantly
inherited his father’s Northampton shoe factory. Trying to live up to his
father’s legacy and save the family business from bankruptcy, Charlie finds
inspiration in the form of Lola. A fabulous entertainer in need of some sturdy
stilettos, Lola turns out to be the one person who can help Charlie become the
man he’s meant to be. As they work to turn the factory around, this unlikely
pair finds that they have more in common than they ever dreamed possible… and
discovers that when you change your mind, you can change the world.

Joe Stilgoe
‘New Songs For Old Souls’
Released on 27th April 2015 www.joestilgoe.com
Joe Stilgoe, is the renaissance man of modern jazz. He is a pianist, a jazz
musician and a singer/songwriter. Joe has a new album, 'New Songs For Old Souls'
- which is to be released April 27th on Linn Records.
The album consists of 12 songs with ten originals by Joe, including three
thrilling big band numbers: ‘Nobody Cares Like Me’, ‘Pocket Song’ and a new
version of ‘Gold On Silver’, previously heard on his last album 'Songs On Film
Live'. Joe also duets with Liane Carroll on a wistful cover of Brian Wilson’s ‘I
Just Wasn’t Made For These Times’, one of the album’s two non-original songs.
The album release coincides with his first major West End stage role, in Kevin
Spacey’s ‘High Society’ at the Old Vic Theatre - from April 30th - August 22nd
2015. Directed by Olivier Award-winning Maria Friedman, Joe will be performing
in a role that has been specially created for him.
"It's a dream job in many ways, I suppose, and I'll be playing to my perfect
audience: people who like a bit of nostalgia, a little swing, and a lot of
authenticity."
_____________________________________________________________________________________
The album features a stunning collection of classic songs:
‘Beautiful’; ‘I Feel The Earth Move’; ‘Will You Love Me Tomorrow/Some Kind Of
Wonderful/Up On The Roof’ with Carole King and James Taylor; ‘It’s Too Late’ and
‘You’ve Got A Friend’ – to name a few.
‘Beautiful: The Carole King Musical’, is one of
the top-selling titles on Broadway and winner of two Tony Awards in 2014. The
show will open in London on February 24th at the Aldwych Theatre. The Original
Broadway Cast Recording of 'Beautiful: The Carole King Musical' won a Grammy for
Best Musical Theatre Album. The album debuted at NO.1 on Billboard’s Top
Broadway Chart.
‘Beautiful’, tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to
stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her former husband Gerry
Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil
and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular
music history. Along the way, she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the
soundtrack to a generation.
To date, more than 400 of her compositions have been recorded by over 1,000
artists, resulting in 100 hit singles. Now 70 and still full of life, Carole
King is without question the most successful and revered female songwriter in
pop music history.
