(Musical)  The world's greatest love story takes to the streets in this landmark Broadway musical.  West Side Story is loosely based on Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet and set in the urban streets and alleys of 1950s New York City.  The ethnic and cultural differences of rival street gangs traps two star-crossed lovers between warring factions.  Tony, former leader of the Jets, and Maria, the sister of Bernardo, current leader of the Sharks, fall in love after meeting at a community dance, but the rivalry between the Sharks and the Jets threatens to consume them both. Memorable songs include "Maria", "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere".
