Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT Sizzles and Shakes at Dr. Phillips Center

When SOME LIKE IT HOT began on Broadway, it was celebrated for updating a classic film to modern audiences in ways and themes not readily apparent from the original source material. After having played a successful year-long run on Broadway, the show concluded on December 30, 2023. Nine long months later, it finally mounted a national tour within the greater United States. And now, for a spectacular pre-Christmas week, Central Florida gets to bear witness to the storied spectacle as Broadway visitors did. Much of what’s been seen on Broadway has been lovingly transferred to this touring production, making it a show not to be missed.
Review: ELF THE MUSICAL at Marcus PAC

Many peers around my age may remember the first time they saw Elf, the 2003 movie starring Will Ferrell. It was a fresh take on the Christmas cheer trope, introducing an overly enthusiastic and endearingly naïve (and exaggeratingly tall) human who was really convinced he was an elf, just like his 3-foot North Pole peers.
PRETTY WOMAN: THE MUSICAL Takes The Century II Concert Hall Stage In January

The American Theatre Guild will present the dazzling production based on one of Hollywood's most beloved romantic stories, PRETTY WOMAN: THE MUSICAL.
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA Musical Extends Booking

The new musical The Devil Wears Prada has released a new block of tickets as the show extends to 18 October 2025. The show has now officially opened at the Dominion Theatre in the West End.
Review: THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA, Dominion Theatre

The Devil Wears Prada may be the most hyped musical of the year. With a stellar cast, incredible clothes and none other than Sir Elton John at the helm of the music. The publicity tells us to 'gird our loins.', but after seeing this thin and rather flat show, the question is: for what?

Ahead of the show’s opening, this December at the Dominion Theatre, The Devil Wears Prada The Musical has released all new production photos. Check out the photos here!
Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT at Belk Theater

While Marc Shaiman's score often sounds effortful in striving to make SOME LIKE IT HOT what it was in the first place—a musical with cherry-picked hits for Marilyn Monroe to sing—the book by Matthew Lopez and Amber Ruffin helps the story and its main characters diversify and evolve. Director Casey Nicholaw's high-heel tap choreography further assures high energy all evening long.
Tickets are Now on Sale for SOME LIKE IT HOT in San Diego
