Dan Partridge is starring as Charlie Price in the new touring production of Kinky Boots.
Written by Cyndi Lauper and Harvey Fierstein, Kinky Boots opened on Broadway in 2013 before transferring to London in 2015. This new production is directed by Curve’s Artistic Director Nikolai Foster with choreography by Leah Hill and set and costume design by Robert Jones.
Dan's theatre credits include: Pepper in Mamma Mia! (West End), Link in Hairspray (UK Tour), Rum Tum Tugger in Cats (Europe & South Korea Tours) and most recently he originated the role of Ben in the world premiere of Here And Now: The Steps Musical (The Alexandra, Birmingham).
Dan had an extensive run starring as Danny Zuko in Grease on tour and in the West End at the Dominion Theatre. He has also worked on screen and done multiple workshops.
In this episode Dan disusses the demands of playing Charlie, developing his stage relationship with Johannes Radebe and what it's been like to create a new version of Kinky Boots. Dan also reflects on his career so far... and lots more pops up along the way.
Kinky Boots tours until July 2025. Visit www.kinkybootstour.com for info, tour dates and tickets.
