West Side Story updates the classic tale of Romeo and Juliet by setting it in mid-1950's New York City amid a backdrop of gangs divided by race. The starcrossed lovers, here Tony and Maria, come from families on opposing sides of this gang war. The musical strives to offer commentary on social, racial, and generational divides prevalent in the US.
