Matt Henry is phenomenal. I saw him last night and I've never seen someone look so confident in heels. He totally transformed into Lola and I can't get over how amazing his performance was! He totally deserved his Olivier :)
Ok I have a couple of things to say: At point 0:23 - the angel that subtly just drops to her back with one foot in the air. Are you kidding?! That's flawless and amazingggg! 2:55 - 3:01 angel doing the air split to the ground SLAYS MMMEEEEEE: SO GOOD! Then the TWO angels that do the walk the back flip effortlessly is so beautiful! Just an amazing performance overall! What a great group!!
Francis Alegre holy moly I saw Callum Francis play Lola on Broadway in New York and was BLOWN AWAY! It was my first time seeing kinky boots and he definitely made it!!
I just came from watching the Japanese version of "KINKY BOOTS" & It was great to be able to compare the exact scene with ANERICAN version! Of course the rylics are different between ENGLISH & JAPANESE but I liked both! (^^)(^^) I wish I saw the show in person!!(^^)
@@KellyIsShort Hi there, thank you for the correction! (^^). I knew the movie came first in London in 80s? I'm in New York & I remember we had it for Broadway in 90s, so I thought I was watching the ANERICAN version.(^^). It was just interesting to compare to Japanese version. The guy played Lola is totally heterosexual & very popular among Japanese & other Asian women! I was shocked to see him playing the role, as I've never seen him dressed as a woman or in heels!!(^^)(^^) He was basically a famous actor for TV dramas & the film & never seen him dancing & singing before...not as a woman..I mean the TRANSVESTITE!(^^) I wonder if you are interested in checking out the Japanese version. They played in 2015 & this year & HARUNA MIURA, the Lola got much better this time around, so definitely see the 2019 version. Of course they are speaking Japanese but you can still enjoy their singing & dancing. I think the music is mostly the same. Cindi Lauper? the popular American singer from 80s was in charge of their music. She has been loving Japanese culture & its people for many years!!(^^) I really hope you check it out when you have a chance! (^^)
c) Be who you want to be/Raise You Up, which still has Lola & Angels, but also actively involves everyone else AND also contains 2 of the main messages of the show - "Be who you want to be" and "you can change the world if you change your mind".
This is so much better than the Broadway version. The American Lola lacks sass. She looks like she can't be bothered half the time. The British version has sass on every level whether that's just talking, or singing and dancing.
Bryan Edney I might be biased as I went to college with Matt, but he is very, very talented, his vocal range is fierce! :-) ua-cam.com/video/vydSqLhFnaQ/v-deo.html
Love the show & more than chuffed to bits that it won what it did (those boots are WORKS OF ART), but slightly bemused/annoyed at the choice of this song to represent the show at the Oliviers, as it only showcases Lola and the Angels (don t get me wrong, they are fab) and basically guidelines the majority of the cast. IMO it would have been far better to do Be
Jesus you really have no idea do you? Why do you think this Lola has won best actor in a musical? I've seen him a few times and he's nothing short of incredible, this cast is certainly much better in terms of accents, more genuine than the fake ones on Broadway and the national tour.... Kinky Boots belongs in the UK like it should have done in the first place...
あーもう、好き。大好きこの作品。ローラとチャーリーを演じたマットとキリアンも素晴らしかったです。どこの国でももう公演が終わってしまったのは今も惜しい…
以前コンテストで15センチのヒールを履きましたが、ものすごい負担でした。それを男の人が履いて(しかもピンヒール!)踊る、ってすごいです、ほんと。

good point also one of the Angles you are referring to is Played by Phil Town all the angles are played by males
The angel that you refer to at 0:23 should be the Lala of Australian production of Kinky Boots.
His name is Callum Francis
Matt Henry is my favourite😍😍😍😍😍
To me the Olivier awards are so much more formal and fancy then the Tonys so to have Kinky Boots perform is so cool 😂❤️
All of the cast are extremely down to earth and really friendly. Killian bought us donuts ☺
luck and some of them excepted cards from me thank you cards will my ones did also Phil town who is a angle had 2 conversations with me and 2 photos
日本版もぜひ見てほしい!
I honestly love it more with 8 angels, it looks amazing
yes and it is because 2 of them are the swings as well as the ones you normally see
also you can see the assistant dance captain is one of them
Gideon Wilonja West End live had 10 angels!
スゴク最高です、ありがとう、
Wonderful!!!!
THIS is the number that the Broadway cast should have done at the Tony Awards.
Saw it live. Just the best.
Very good performance! Please see Haruma Miura in the role he's pretty and so good
This performance deserves a standing ovation!
三浦春馬は本場に引け劣らない❗️

春馬君はいい意味、癖を盛ってますね。
小池徹平も純粋さ、半端ないよね
Matt Henry ♥️
FANTASTIC!!!! AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL!!!!! AHHHHHHHH ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
LOLA, ANGELS, EVERYBODY
Interesting to see the Callum Francis was part of the Angels and now he's portraying Lola in Australia
he was a original swing for the west end turns out the other swing member is now Harry
Francis Alegre holy moly I saw Callum Francis play Lola on Broadway in New York and was BLOWN AWAY! It was my first time seeing kinky boots and he definitely made it!!
Francis Alegre best Lola there is
@@MWigleySongs 粗相
Such a great cast!
yes and they are so nice off stadge
every time I watch this it makes me excited because seeing kinky boots on the 3rd of august and it is the London cast as well
I enjoy this phone and
I've just seen this comment now, did you enjoy kinky boots last week ?
scotchmatildafan
yes I did thank you standing ovation every thing was prefect
forgot to Mention I had the whole of the original west end cast and a standing ovation also met Amy Lennox ,Phil Town , Jamie Baughan and Amy Ross
I saw it on the 2nd. Best night of my life
Oh my god I love this show
Saw the show in it opening week, its an amazing show, if you ever get the chance to see it I highly suggest it!x
ah this is so perfect, i cant get enough of this cast😩😍
It's weird hearing Kinky Boots with actual real British accents lol
It's so funny you say that because I first saw it in London, so watching all these videos of Americans putting on fake accents sounds so weird to me.
I was thinking exactly the same right now lol
honestly i have no idea how this opened in broadway first since its based in england it would make sense to open it in west end
@@user-mw2ne6oh7n because Harvey Fierstein and Cyndi Lauper are Americans
I just came from watching the Japanese version of "KINKY BOOTS" & It was great to be able to compare the exact scene with ANERICAN version!
Of course the rylics are different between ENGLISH & JAPANESE but I liked both! (^^)(^^) I wish I saw the show in person!!(^^)
This is the British version, not American. However I get what you mean!

Damn this show is so good

02:21 Wooork, Beyoncé! 😍
Saw it on Broadway a few years ago, loved it so much!!!!

1:14 so adorable
the angel sat on the stairs at 0.56 was Lola when I saw KB in the west end a few weeks ago and he was AMAZING! totally worthy of a leading role
is was Aaron or Calum or could be the 3rd cover Marcus
Callum Francis, I agree he was incredible
Looks great
한국 킹키부츠 공연에서도 이 장면이 제일 멋있음... 롤라 등장하는 장면이 제일👍
I like this song better than the finale song Raise You Up. This is my favorite dance numbers in Broadway ever!
I know that sound at 1:29.
That's the sound of a wireless mic getting broken.
I just saw it like 30 minutes ago it was so good !
Is no one gonna talk about 0:48? Those angels looked like they were flying.
This is so much better than the Broadway version. The American Lola lacks sass. She looks like she can't be bothered half the time. The British version has sass on every level whether that's just talking, or singing and dancing.
James Dean you shoulda seen the Toronto one he's brilliant.
James Dean so not true have u seen billy porter ?
James Dean which american lola? I really hope that you don't mean J Harrison Ghee because he was the best lola I've seen since billy porter!
Callum Francis THE BEST LOLA EVER!!!!
This is Matt Henry as Lola, Callum Francis is an Angel
I know I'm just saying in Australia where I live Callum is playing Lola and he is the best!!
This particular "Lola" didn't have the moves nor the vocal range of original "Lola" Billy Porter. But overall good ensemble performance.
you are referring to Matt Henry the original west end Lola
Christina Samuel no Billy
Bryan Edney I might be biased as I went to college with Matt, but he is very, very talented, his vocal range is fierce! :-) ua-cam.com/video/vydSqLhFnaQ/v-deo.html
@@TemujinScott80 I'm with you, Billy was the best!!
Love the show & more than chuffed to bits that it won what it did (those boots are WORKS OF ART), but slightly bemused/annoyed at the choice of this song to represent the show at the Oliviers, as it only showcases Lola and the Angels (don t get me wrong, they are fab) and basically guidelines the majority of the cast. IMO it would have been far better to do Be
I'm sorry if the characters are wrong because I use Google Translate.I am Japanese, but I was impressed by your video. Thank you.
Is the stage version available on dvd or digital download for UK?
interesting thing watching this because I know 2 of the angles actually 3 of this certain cast I have photos with met the other angel on wendsday
Omg... Is that Arun from &Juliet??? 💚
2:05
I think it's interesting they added 2 more angels to the west end cast. Wonder why they did it (besides to showcase 2 other people lol)?
To include all the swings and to promote the show the best they can at such a high profile event most likely
Actually there's 6 in the west end show I saw it today. It was just for this performance that they had 8!!
good point it is the swings who are the extra angles normally the angles understudy's as well noticed this on the 5th of march
Has anyone ever noticed that THE CALLUM FRANCIS is in this as an Angel?
How the fuck did this beat In the Heights for best new musical
+Adam Efimoff wait are you saying Kinky Boots is conservative?
+Adam Efimoff ok. It's probably so mainstream, because it's not super preachy.
+Jamie Fletch Because Kinky Boots is a far better musical than In The Heights. Don't get me wrong, ITH is great! But it pales in comparison to KB.
マット・ヘンリーさんの掛け声は『here we go』ですが、三浦春馬君は『C'mon』でしたね。
なんで違う掛け声にしたのかな〜?同じでも良かったのに。
Better technically dancers than the U.S. version but colorless... Angels must have vivid personality...
*sidelines.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
A good film should deepen one’s experience
1:23 💜🔥💚
👇 👇 👇 👇🔥
Don't understand why this won best musical at the tonys
Oh hell no where’s billy porter.
Better of the Japanese cast than they
This is the worst cast of kinky boots. Lola is doing so many weird things. Ew. I love the current 2016 cast that has j Harrison ghee as Lola.
And the ensemble sounds awful. EW
+Evan Sowa I have to agree!! they sound so shaky.... the only cast that really impressed me was the original Toronto cast...
The cast are brilliant been 3 times can't wait to go back they were probably more nervous because they were on TV and at a bigger theatre

+aiden Playford So I take it you didn't see the original Broadway cast?
Horrible
