"WEST SIDE STORY" changed the course of musical theatre when it opened on Broadway in 1957 and it still remains one of the most successful stage shows of all time. The 1961 film version won ten Academy Awards. Based on Romeo and Juliet,"WEST SIDE STORY" is set on Manhattan's Upper West Side and explores the rivalry between two teenage gangs; one white, the other Puerto Rican. When Tony falls in love with Maria, the sister of the rival gang's leader, the feud takes on a new dimension, and as their love blossoms so begins a fatal journey overshadowed by violence and hatred. The score includes the unforgettable songs 'Maria', 'Tonight', 'Somewhere', 'America' and 'I Feel Pretty'.

"WEST SIDE STORY", originally directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins, has a book by Arthur Laurents, music by Leonard Bernstein with Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. This production is directed and choreographed by Joey McKneely using the full original Jerome Robbins choreography.
