Based on the Oscar-winning film The Apartment by Billy Wilder, “Promises, Promises”, is a masterpiece of complex characters and memorable musical numbers.  Chuck Baxter is desperate to become a senior executive at the insurance company where he works.  It seems the only way he can achieve this is by getting in the good graces of the other senior executives and more importantly, his personnel manager Mr. Sheldrake.  He starts to lend out his spacious, upscale apartment for the evening to his fellow executives for their extramarital trysts and in return, slowly makes his way up the corporal ladder. Chuck soon learns that his own romantic interest is taking part in these rendezvous with the man who holds his fate in their hands, Mr. Sheldrake.
