A timeless, musical retelling of the classic story of Romeo & Juliet, West Side Story is considered a landmark part of the American Musical Theatre canon. Set in the harsh streets of the Upper West Side of New York, two rival gangs battle for control of turf and respect in their neighborhood. Tensions rise as the younger sister of one of the gang leaders falls in love with a young man from the opposing side, and the young lovers try to find their way to a better life amidst hatred and misunderstanding. Groundbreaking in its time, and featuring a score by the legendary composer Leonard Bernstein, this classic piece of theatre history remains important and relevant today.
