Set in Chicago during Prohibition when jazz music was all the rage, "Some Like It Hot" draws similarities to another award winning Broadway show, Chicago. Jazz elements fill the entire show as the main characters, Joe and Jerry, are struggling musicians working to survive on speakeasy shows. Their lives face a comical turn wrench when they witness a gangster committing a crime in their mob-controlled speakeasy and need to begin cross-dressing to protect their identities from the mob.
Joe reinvents himself as Josephine, while Jerry transforms into Daphne and the two join an women-only swing band. The band's singer Sugar Kane becomes a integral part of their tale as the two men attempt to woo her without blowing their cover. The journey each character faces many tests of their strengths and teaches them valuable lessons about themselves.
Did you know that "Some Like It Hot" is a Broadway adaptation of the 1959 film of the same name, which starred the legendary Tony Curtis, Jack Lemmon, and Marilyn Monroe.

The movie took home three Golden Globe Awards and one Academy Award and was chosen to be in the first class of 25 movies chosen by the US National Film Registry for preservation.
