An unlikely savior rescues an almost-defunct shoe manufacturer in “Kinky Boots the Musical,” at Mill Valley’s Throckmorton Theatre through June 4.

Welcome to Price & Co., a family-owned shoe maker in the British town of Northampton. The staid enterprise is on its last legs, losing market share to cheap imports. Formerly loyal dealers are sending back unsold inventory, and its chief executive Mr. Price (Graham Davis) has just died. His son Charlie (Sleiman Alahmadieh) inherits the helm but is overwhelmed with problems. How can he save the business in a world of changing tastes and fickle customers?

Throckmorton Theatre is at 142 Throckmorton Ave. in Mill Valley. Performances are Friday and Saturday at 7:30pm and at 2pm Sunday.

Tix are $26 to $32.
