Happy Thanksgiving! It's “Turkey Lurkey Time”!🦃🦃🦃 🕺 💃 🍸 From "Promises, Promises" performed at the 1969 Tony Awards -- “Turkey Lurkey Time” is the act-one finale, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the story It’s a big blowout dance number set at the company Christmas party. The song is led by three enthusiastic secretaries who take the floor at the party as the office’s “entertainment committee.” Later, the company joins in, and what results is one of the strangest, weirdest, most bat-shit crazy dances to ever grace the Broadway stage. And it’s wonderful. . "Promises, Promises" was a musical adaptation of the 1960 classic "The Apartment" — which featured music by Burt Bacharach, lyrics by Hal David, and a book by Neil Simon. The show follows insurance salesman Chuck Baxter as he gets caught up in the corporate ladder by offering his bosses the use of his apartment for romantic trysts. . On Turkey Day, someone, somewhere will be indulging in “Turkey Lurkey Time”… even if it’s actually a Christmas song.* † . . . . . . . . . . . #thanksgiving #thanksgiving2018 #turkeydance #turkeylurkey #turkeylurkeydance #promisespromises #broadway #1969 #holiday #holiday2018 #officechristmasparty #sf #sanfrancisco #midcentury #sixties #musicals #1960s #midcenturystyle #neilsimon #holidays #instafun #instagood #happythanksgiving *Entertainment Weekly, "A brief history of Broadway's iconic 'Turkey Lurkey Time'" https://ew.com/article/2013/11/27/turkey-lurkey-time/ † Full video, Turkey Lurkey Time https://youtu.be/izgG6C_J33s (at Epoca) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqds3eSljQR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=emv7sgs9cwfa
