Arthur Laurents, Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim's classic musical West Side Story will be directed by Paper Mill Playhouse's Producing Artistic Director Mark S. Hoebee and will feature Jerome Robbins' original choreography recreated by Alex Sanchez.

Leading the company are Matt Doyle as Tony,Belinda Allyn as Maria, Natalie Cortez as Anita,German Alexander as Bernardo and Mikey Winslow as Riff.

West Side Story is the stunning, groundbreaking and legendary musical that set the bar for all musical theater. Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is transported to 1950s New York City as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the Jets and the 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.
