West Side Story at Tato Laviera Theatre

More than 50 years ago, West Side Story came along and changed musical theater forever with its explosive dance numbers, energetic score and portrayal of gang warfare. Taking the Romeo and Juliet story and bringing it into 1950s New York, West Side Story follows two teens as they fall in love, crossing racial divides and igniting gang rivalries with their passion. The score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim features such hits as "Something's Coming," "Tonight," "America," "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere." From the first note to the final breath, West Side Story soars as one of the greatest love stories of all time.
