Review: SOME LIKE IT HOT Sizzles and Shakes at Dr. Phillips Center
by Albert Gutierrez - Dec 19, 2024

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.

Director Casey Nicholaw's high-heel tap choreography further assures high energy all evening long.
