NEW YORK (AP) — Forget Mad Men.

The '60s will live again on Broadway next spring in a revival of Promises, Promises, the musical based on the Oscar-winning movie The Apartment.

Producer John Gore says the production will star Sean Hayes and Kristin Chenoweth. It will open April 25, 2010, at the Broadway Theatre. Preview performances begin March 28.

Promises, Promises features a book by Neil Simon and a score by Burt Bacharach and Hal David.

The musical will be directed and choreographed by Rob Ashford.

Hayes is best known for playing Jack on the television series Will & Grace. Chenoweth last appeared on Broadway in the 2006 revival of The Apple Tree.
