Written by Arthur Laurents with music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, West Side Story is one of America's most iconic and beloved Broadway musicals. Using Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet as its source material, the story has been transported to modern-day New York City where two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the "American" Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. The story of their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence, and prejudice became one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching musicals of all time, and the subject matter is as relevant today as it was when the show opened in 1957.
