The National Theatre announced today that single tickets for the upcoming engagement of SOME LIKE IT HOT, the “Super-Sized, All-Out Song-And-Dance Spectacular!” (The New York Times), in Washington, D.C. will go on sale Friday, September 5, 2025.
Set in Chicago when Prohibition has everyone thirsty for a little excitement, SOME LIKE IT HOT is the “glorious, big, high-kicking” (Associated Press) 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.
And what a trip it is! With its irresistible combination of heart and laughs, song and dance, SOME LIKE IT HOT won more theater awards than any show in its season, and was named Best Musical by the Drama Desk, The Drama League, and the Outer Critics Circle. No wonder Deadline calls it “a tap-dancing, razzle-dazzling embrace of everything you love about musical theater.”
Tickets for the show are already on sale for subscribers and groups, and tickets will go on sale for all others this Friday, September 5 at 12:00pm. Tickets will be available to purchase online at www.BroadwayAtTheNational.com or in person at The National Theatre box office, located at 1321 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 20004. Box Office hours are Monday through Friday 12:00-6:00pm with extended evening and weekend hours during performance days. Groups of 10 or more can book by emailing groupsales@broadwayatthenational.com.
