It’s defo not Kinky Boots! I think it’s a concert style performance of chess. To be performed at the Drury Lane. Could be wrong!

Red stiletto reminds me of the cover image for The Devil Wears Prada. But it would seem very unlikely to preview the show this way. Stranger things have happened...

The red heel reminded me of the poster for the musical, The Life. Surely it's not that?

I think people are just wondering what The Wizard of Oz having a full production at the Palladium next year would have to do with Chess in Concert at (presumably) Drury Lane? Why are these being announced together?
And whatever the third thing (💥) is.

The shoe in this clue isn't referring to Wizard of Oz...

Three concerts.
At Drury Lane.
In August.
One is Chess.

I'll wait for casting and prices first. As long as they don't do anything silly on either count, Chess is one I'll definitely go to - love that show.
Of course, I won't actually be going, as they will do something gimmicky with the casting and it'll cost a fortune.
Knowing my luck it'll be something spectacularly disappointing like Bradley Jaden and a bang average ex-Elphaba as Freddie and Florence, supported by Carrie Hope Fletcher as Svetlana. Fill the rest in to be suitably diverse, make it sound absolutely terrible and completely unrehearsed, charge £250 a ticket and hey presto.
On the plus side, there's a decent Five Guys down the road...

Decent and Five Guys is a contradiction in terms.

Decent and Five Guys is a contradiction in terms. I respectfully disagree.

How very dare they! Where else can one add mushrooms, pickles and jalapeños to ones hot dog? (Although I’d be going in Bodeans opposite if it was Drury Lane.).

The three boot options on my emoji’s are less than inspiring so they could be going with that ruby slipper to symbolise ‘Kinky Boots’. I dunno.

They shoulda just picked one, cast it really well, and done that. Probably Chess.
Very meh casting, it's not like the concert of Bonnie and Clyde! Drury Lane is massive, and August is not far away.
Good luck to them, but Treason will be papered to the heavens, and Kinky Boots not far behind I expect.

Kinky Boots is such a bizarre choice for a concert staging.
