West Side Story: In Concert
Two rival gangs. One forbidden love. A story that still resonates today.
Set against the streets of 1950s New York City, West Side Story tells the timeless story of Tony and Maria, whose love is caught in the middle of a bitter rivalry between the Jets and the Sharks. With a soaring score by Leonard Bernstein, unforgettable lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and a powerful story of love, prejudice, violence, and belonging, West Side Story remains as moving and relevant as ever.
What Does “In Concert” Mean?
An in-concert production brings the focus to the music with a live orchestra, storytelling, and performances while presenting the show in a streamlined theatrical format. Rather than a fully staged production with elaborate scenery and a traditional set, the performers take center stage, allowing audiences to experience the power of the score and story with fewer visual distractions.
But this is not simply a concert of songs.
West Side Story: In Concert will feature the full script performed from beginning to end with a live orchestra, along with choreography and staging that bring the story to life. You’ll experience the complete dramatic arc, characters, relationships, and iconic musical numbers of West Side Story.The full story. The full score. The choreography. The drama.
Just the way a great musical should be experienced: live, powerful, and unforgettable.
