Anne Hathaway broadway bound?

Broadway World reports that a secret, closed door reading took place this weekend for the musical Promises, Promises. Several big names in the Broadway world were in attendance, and the reading was done by Sean Hayes (Will & Grace) and Anne Hathaway. According to inside sources, their performance and singing impressed everyone this weekend.

The musical, is actually a comedy based on the film The Apartment by Billy Wilder. The original show ran on Broadway from 1968 until 1972 with a total of 1,281 performances and it has never had a proper revival!
