Where I decided to give my two cents on Broadway Shows I see... because most critics are asses that don't know a good show when they seen one... My rating scale!

Kinky Boots The Musical - Review #14
Well Best Musical? When I didn't care for In The Heights... No desire to see Book of Morman... and well at one time I didn't have a desire to see Memphis (that one I was wrong about... GREAT SHOW!!) Sometimes me and The Tony peeps.. don't agree.
I hated the above tid bit on the Tonys... But I ended up getting a low price ticket (sorta) and well....
I really was bored through the show. A female impersonator, needing boots.. trying to save a shoe factory... well didn't do it. I love Cyndi Lauper... well... sorry Cin, not this time. I couldn't connect to the songs.. and the one touching one that should have won me over.. was too long and it like changed three different times.. like it got lost on the other side of the bridge... So yeah... not so much... sorry.
Acting well done.. I didn't get to see Stark Sands who is dreamy, saw the replacement who was dreamy in his own right... Billy Porter can sing and act VERY VERY WELL... He was amazing in what he did.. again... it was mostly the story and music that failed. And being a gay male this should be up my alley, then again I'm not much of a Drag Queen fan...
The one scene where Lola (Billy) throws a fight, (yep) to help a bigot to save face, which then you knew it would be the turning point for such bigot and then become a bit more supportive...
Oh well... as with Wonderland and others... I know my taste doesn't usually go with the mass appeal. But yeah this one let me down...
must see?
