Combine Burt Bacharach and Hal David, one of the best songwriting teams of the 20th Century, with America’s funniest playwright Neil Simon and the end result is the endlessly entertaining Promises, Promises.
Adapted from Billy Wilder’s 1960 Oscar-winning film “The Apartment,” Promises, Promises, focuses on a rising executive, Chuck Baxter, who tries to curry favor with his superiors by letting them borrow his apartment for romantic trysts. Set in the Mad Men era of Manhattan’s Madison Avenue, Promises, Promises remains slick, hip and timeless. With its propulsive score, eye-catching dances, and laugh-out-loud hilarity this is a show you will long carry in your heart. |
