Excellent production! Wonderful performers and great sets. Went with my mom for "Mother's Day" - we will never forget it!
Felt like we were in NYC on Broadway with the professionalism & talent these kids broyght a beloved story to life right in front of my eyes.
I really enjoyed watching West Side Story on stage. I have seen the movie numerous times and the onstage performance was awesome.
We saw West Side Story on 5/18/14. The singing and dancing were wonderful. I appreciate the talent of the cast. However , the "updating" of the story was upsetting. The reviews called the new adaptations "gritty." I call them appalling. Why does very "update" require sex and vulgarity? I took my daughter to see West Side Story when she was twelve and we thoroughly enjoyed it. My whole family went (Including the 8 and 13 year old) and we were shocked at the changes. "Officer Krumpky" was a comic relief in the original story instead of an onstage display of masturbation. Is it a must that every stage play have someone crawling in bed? Have we become so immune to violence against women that rape is casually used for dramatic effect? I know that I will take flack for this, but this was NOT family entertainment and I realize now that I can't take my grandchildren to see a play, even a "classic" unless I preview it.
Performers were excellent! Great show, highly recommend.
Great cast...everyone was awesome! Would definitely recommend.
It was a good show except all 4 of us were unable to understand the Puerto Rican girls when they were speaking in a conversation. Their accents were way too thick. My husband and I had to explain a lot to our kids (12 and 14) because they couldn't grasp the words being said in English.
That dancing was awesome, the orchestra was superb, the biggest challenge was hearing the actors! We sat in the balcony and only heard about one out of ten words. The speakers were not working up there, very disappointing as we were celebrating my moms 86th birthday, should have been able to hear it no matter where we sat!
This production of West Side Story, was absolutely wonderful!! Some different staging ideas were evident and totally worked!! Dancing was superb!! Thoroughly enjoyed it!! Slightly disappointed in VIP Spotlight Room prior to performance. Cost was super high for what was served!! Could have been less expensive, or included a drink or two. Cash bar was extremely high as well!! Liked idea of meeting there with friends as we all came from different cities, but will NOT do again at that cost!
