Some Like It Hot is coming to the West End

Some Like It Hot is currently running on Broadway until December 2023

Some Like It Hot is based on the classic Billy Wilder movie, set in Chicago when Prohibition has everyone thirsty for a little excitement. The musical is a brilliant story of two musicians forced to flee the Windy City after witnessing a mob hit. With gangsters hot on their heels, they catch a cross-country train for the life-chasing, life-changing trip of a lifetime.

The producers' statement says: “A national tour will launch in September 2024 and a West End production will follow in 2025, produced by the Shubert Organization and Neil Meron in partnership with Ambassador Theatre Group.”

“We are grateful for the opportunity to bring one of the greatest comedy films of all time to the stage with a completely fresh approach. We want to thank the creative team, cast and company of Some Like it Hot who have created an entertaining and moving show that has delighted audiences for the past year, bringing joyous laughter to the Shubert Theatre. We are thrilled to see this production’s journey continue beyond Broadway with the national tour next season and a future West End production as well.”

Further details will be confirmed later.
