"Boots" to Broadway
The 2006 Miramax film comedy Kinky Boots, about a drag queen who saves a failing shoe company with a line of fetish footwear, is being turned into a stage musical.
Veteran Broadway producers Daryl Roth (August: Osage County) and Hal Luftig (Movin' Out) are in talks with Jerry Mitchell (Legally Blonde) to direct the new show.
Before directing Legally Blonde on Broadway, Mitchell choreographed the film-to-stage adaptations of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Hairspray, and The Full Monty.
