West Side Story

By Leonard Bernstein, Stephen Sondheim, Arthur Laurents

Directed by Erick Gyrion

PERHAPS THE GREATEST MUSICAL EVER WRITTEN!
From the first notes to the final breath, West Side Story is one of the most memorable musicals and greatest love stories of all time. Arthur Laurents' book remains as powerful, poignant and timely as ever. The score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim is widely regarded as one of the best ever written. The world's greatest love story takes to the streets in this landmark Broadway musical that is one of the theatre's finest accomplishments.

Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is transported to modern-day New York City, as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the "American" Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice is one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching and relevant musical dramas of our time.

West Side Story is recommended for ages 13+. Please be advised that there is violence and some sensitive subject matter that is true to the story and plot. Parental guidance is suggested. RATED PG-13
