CAMP: The Movie

Posted: 9/26/04 at 8:30pm

I just finished watching this and finally got to see the infamous Turkey Lurkey Time showstopper from the musical Promises, Promises. Ending credits state that the choreography was based on the original by Michael Bennett. Did Bennett leave notes on numbers he choreographed, or was this show or the number itself filmed at one point?

I'm just curious to know how it was that they duplicated the actual choreography for this since Bennett has passed away and the show has never seen a revival.

Thanks in advance to anyone with info on this.

Hey Hey Stagedoor! If only they'd do Promises Promises. Turkey Lurkey would be soo much fun.

Aw babe, I would love that hug and kiss, but I just realized that site doesnt provide a whole lot of information. For once the internet, specifically Google, is not proving to be a valuable friend. I'm sorry.
