Chuck Baxter’s greatest asset at his job is his small one-bedroom apartment on West 67th Street. Trying to advance his career, Chuck leaves the key with certain executives for “extra curricular activities” in exchange for the promise of promotion. Complications arise when Chuck learns that Fran, the girl of his dreams, is secretly seeing his boss—in his apartment. Based on the 1961 Academy Winning Best Picture, “The Apartment,” this play features a book by Mr. Simon, Mr. Bachrach’s only Broadway score and choreography by Michael Bennett.
The cast includes Darren Ottati as Chuck Baxter and Shannon DuPuis as Fran Kubelik. Also featured are Richard Alder, Toni-Jo Birk, Julie Crowley, Bethany Dellapolla, Dane DuPuis, Sheila Engh, Brianna Kinnier, Geoffrey Milton, Tom Rosante, Jack Seabury, Lon Shomer, Christina Stankewicz, Josephine Wallace and Edna Winston.
