With music by the legendary creative team of Arthur Laurents (librettist), Leonard Bernstein (composer) and Stephen Sondheim (lyricist), West Side Story features some of Broadway’s most beloved music including, “Somewhere,” “One Hand, One Heart,” “Tonight,” “America” and “Maria.” In addition to winning two Tony Awards and the Academy Award for Best Picture, West Side Story became one of the most successful shows ever produced on Broadway. The show is a modern telling of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet with the two young lovers on opposite sides of a racial conflict.
