The show actually seems to intentionally nod to Some Like It Hot

Funny you should mention Some Like It Hot and Sugar because the show seems to nod to it. The first-act finale is "Runnin' Wild," and it's performed as they're boarding the train to Boston. If they didn't have Some Like It Hot in mind, a lot of people in the audience surely will. I did say that the second-act duet for Helen and David — mostly sung by Helen — is not helpful, although well-staged. In fact, I don't think any of Helen's three numbers accomplishes much of anything that is especially helpful.
