Only the second? The footwear in KINKY BOOTS is so central to the plot that the show is named after it. Later this season, Encores! is presenting HIGH BUTTON SHOES, a show that I don't know at all, but I imagine the footwear must be important there as well. DO BLACK PATENT LEATHER SHOES REALLY REFLECT UP?...that title is more of a joke than anything else and doesn't really reflect on the plot, except as it concerns a group of kids in Catholic school growing up and starting to question their lives. The leading man of LUCKY STIFF is a hapless shoe salesman, a fact that gets brought up there a few times. :)
That ending to MFL sounds like it could work wonderfully, still keeping the ambiguity of the original, while giving the show more a cap on the end. |
