From the first notes to the final breath, West Side Story is one of the most memorable musicals and powerful, poignant, and timely love stories in American musical theatre. Shakespeares Romeo and Juliet is transported to 1950s New York City as two young, idealistic lovers, Tony and Maria, find themselves caught between warring street gangs. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice is one of the most heart-wrenching and relevant musical dramas of our time.
