Sticking with the theme's of shoes and England comes a dance production that is being held at the historic Sadler's Wells Theatre. The production aptly titled "Shoes" is composed by Richard Thomas and showcases amazing footwear from the likes of Salvatore Ferragamo, Christian Louboutin, and Manolo Blahnik. There will be over 250 pairs of shoes gracing the stage in London where the show will premier this Friday. Part of the collection by Ferragamo are replica's of designs that graced the famous toes of Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe.
"Shoes" composer and writer Richard Thomas describes the production as an exploratory piece about the fetishism of shoes. Thomas further asserts that there is an inherent link between a persons favorite pair of shoes and the memories that they have of the times in and around those shoes. Thomas says that the essence of "Shoes" is "basically about joy – searching for it, finding it and losing it.”
