It’s quite possibly one of the greatest love stories ever to be told in a musical.
Set in the blue-collar neighborhood of New York’s Upper West Side, racial
tensions run high as residents try to grind out a daily living. From heartwrenching ballads like “Somewhere” and steamy Latin beats in “America” to
the soaring lyrics of “Tonight,” West Side Story is a Leonard Bernstein &
Stephen Sondheim musical masterpiece. The choreography is a fine balance
of vicious intensity and romance that will take your breath away.

Flowers don't worry
about how they're
going
to bloom. They just
open up and turn toward
the light and that
makes them beautiful.
