John Stamos and Amy Spanger in Promises, Promises. — Page 2

"Whats up with Betty Buckley playing in PP in London? She was born in 47, Kristin in 68. Big age difference there. Personally Buckley is too old."

Seriously? As ljay said, Buckley was Fran in the original London Promises. They just released a limited pressing of that Cast Recording on CD for the first time.

Do some simple elementary research before you flip out.

Neil and David would be both perfect in this show. How ironic is that if I say anything about Bernadette Peters being 22 years older than Catherine Zeta playing the same role, people tell me that I'm "ageist" but then again everyone says Kristin and Amy are too old to be Fran in PP?

Dollypop.....Loretta Switt is simply too "busy" to appear on a Broadway stage. She is currently appearing in a play at our dinner theatre in Jacksonville, Florida!

If it were my money in the show, I wouldn't want to extend it without someone like Hathaway, NPH, or Deschanel & Gordon-Levitt.

Re: NPH in Promises, Promises

In my DREAMS! Also in my dreams, NPH as Bobby Baby in Company.

If only he'd leave HIMYM and get his ass back to Broadway already!!!

John Stamos has always been a guilty pleasure for me. Althought, he's not the most amazing actor, he's fun to watch and very charming. Plus, he has a nice voice. And I think Hayes has a very nice voice aswell. But, Stamos is too old for the part, I think.

When I heard Chenoweth had the part, I was dissapointed. I love her, but thought she was way too old for the part. I had never seen Promises, Promises but I'm a huge fan of The Apartment. I've seen it a billion times. And I was familiar enough with it to think Hayes was a weird choice, but I thought he pulled it off.

Zach Braff could be a possibility. He has a good enough voice to pull it off. or possibly, Hunter Foster.

And I think Leslie Kritzer could be good as Fran. Although, I do also like the idea of Spanger.

I understand when you're coming from. The 1st production of this show I ever saw, was in San Francisco and they used an actress that looked 60yo to play Desiree. They also had an old Fredrick, and the show simply didn't work for me.
I feel like Desiree should have some pizzahz and some sexiness, since there are 2 men fighting over her. I don't find Peters sexy. She is very pretty, but not sexy.
