About Promises Promises

Promises, Promises is a musical based on the 1960 film The Apartment written by Billy Wilder and I.A.L. Diamond. The music is by Burt Bacharach, lyrics by Hal David, and book by Neil Simon. Musical numbers for the original Broadway production were choreographed by Michael Bennett; Robert Moore directed. The story concerns marital intrigue.

The show was originally produced on Broadway in 1968, running for 1,281 performances. A London production opened in 1969 featuring Tony Roberts and Betty Buckley. The cast album won the Grammy Award for best cast recording, and a song from the show, "I'll Never Fall in Love Again", became a hit single for Dionne Warwick.

Chuck, is an ambitious, charming but shrewd bachelor who works for the Consolidated Life Insurance Company ("Half as Big as Life"). His bosses use his apartment for romantic trysts with the young office assistants, and they promise Chuck that he will be rapidly promoted ("Upstairs"). Fran Kubelik is a waitress in the company restaurant, whom Chuck has always admired her from a distance. As they talk, she considers whether she will ever find someone with whom to share her life. Chuck hopes that she might notice him ("You'll Think of Someone").

J.D. Sheldrake, the personnel director, approaches Chuck with a request for the use of his apartment, with the usual promises ("Our Little Secret"). Sheldrake is meeting Fran. However, in the meantime, she has found common ground with Chuck ("She Likes Basketball"). But, knowing that she is having an affair with Sheldrake complicates things for Chuck. After their meeting, Sheldrake dumps Fran and she tries to commit suicide in Chuck's apartment ("Knowing When to Leave"). Dr. Dreyfus saves her life but thinks Chuck was the reason for her suicide attempt. Meanwhile, Sheldrake questions why he is often tempted by extra-marital dalliances ("Wanting Things").

The office celebrates Christmas and the party becomes boisterous and evolves into a wild dance ("Turkey Lurkey Time"). At Clancy's Lounge Bar, a confused Chuck chats with Marge MacDougall, an acquaintance from the bar ("A Fact Can Be a Beautiful Thing"). Fran is still dreaming of a perfect man ("Whoever You Are"). The men in the office discuss their affairs ("Where Can You Take a Girl?"). Sheldrake decides to resume his affair with Fran. As Christmas approaches ("Christmas Day"), Miss Olsen, Sheldrake's former mistress, decides to tell his wife about his affairs. Meanwhile, Chuck and Dr. Dreyfus try to keep Fran's spirits up ("A Young Pretty Girl Like You"). But both Fran and Chuck are in despair and vow "I'll Never Fall in Love Again". However, Chuck has a plan. Sheldrake meets Chuck to sort things out regarding the use of the apartment, and Chuck gives him the keys. But they are to the executive washroom. Chuck believes he has better things to do than work at Consolidated Life Insurance Company and that all the promises he has been given are worth nothing ("Promises, Promises"). Instead, he believes that playing cards in the New Year with Fran will bring him much more joy; it is he that she finds when she arrives at the apartment.
