I am so happy that I was able to bear witness of seeing the legendary Billy Porter as Lola back in July and I hope that his career continues to press on and shine.
I got to watch Billy and Andy in August of 2015. I loved them and they were amazing!!!! I can't wait until September 26, 2017 I want to go see them really bad!!!
One of the greatest performances I've experienced in Broadway History since seeing Harvey Fierstein in Hairspray and Alice Ripley in Next to Normal. The show will not be the same without Billy but I know Wayne will do an incredible job.
+James Winer - He was saying how Billy has been in show biz since he was 19, & you need talent, dedication & craft to get to this pinnacle; and that they are all one big family! I am going to post the whole thing on my TH-cam channel.
I love the movie with Chiwetel Ejiofor and Joel Edgerton. But I would've loved seeing Billy on Broadway slaying this part. Hopefully in the future he will reprise this.
This is the CUTEST thing ever. I hope they keep this tradition forever.
I wish I gotten the chance to see Billy play Lola live! kinky boots has only entered my life last month and I'm missing out!
He’s definitely practiced mindfulness. Staying in this moment!
still to this day Billy Porter has been the best Lola
This show will always be fantastic! I still listen to the music 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️ boots
I am so thankful that I got to see him in this show. He was so amazing and inspiring. Thank you Billy! ❤
I saw this play on a Norwegian Cruise! And I loved it! Got me to watch Pose!! Love you Billy Porter!!

I remember seeing this when it was still in previews! So sad to see Billy go but can't wait to see what he does next!
+Jenna Rose He already has another play lined up!! Should be coming to broadway in Previews in April if I am not mistaken!!!
And I was there for this!
Awwww I remember seeing Kinky Boots when it was in preview. I might or might not have cried watching this
Those will be some pretty big boots to fill!
Billy, I will always see you at everyone of your shows. You are forever the best Lola. See you in Shuffle Along
This made me cry!
I couldn't begin to imagine another Lola but damn, Wayne Brady couldn't have been a better choice.
J. Harrison Ghee is just as good. I even like him a little better.
I couldn't agree more. J. Harrison Ghee is just as good.
And now, two years later, after Brendon Urie has taken his final bow in Kinky Boots, they come back one final time, and I can actually see them! 💜
Break a leg on Shuffle Along Billy.
Wow I love Billy porter
I'm not crying ur crying
Can we please have full video of his speech?
+Dalissa V I second this request! I know there was more! Clearly Jerry Mitchell was getting ready to speak. I demand a full video!
+James Winer - I was there. Actually, Jerry spoke before Billy's speech. Afterwards he was just reminding everyone to donate to BCEFA.
+Kimberly Parks Ah! What sort of things did Jerry say before Billy's speech?
+James Winer - He was saying how Billy has been in show biz since he was 19, & you need talent, dedication & craft to get to this pinnacle; and that they are all one big family!
I am going to post the whole thing on my TH-cam channel.
I will put the full speech on my channel.
I saw this without billy, but I wish I can see this with him!!!!,

Wow!
HOW I SAW HIM ON BROADWAY AGAIN ON JANUARY 3RD, 2018
No other Lola came close to Billy’s portrayal.
