Book by Arthur Laurents. Music by Leonard Bernstein. Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim. Based on a Conceptions of Jerome Robbins.

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is transported to 20th century New York City as two young, idealistic lovers find
themselves caught between warring street gangs, the Jets and the Sharks. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence, and prejudice is one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching, and relevant musical dramas of our time. Dance and sing to favorite numbers including “Maria,” “America,” and more! We recommend this production for ages 10 and older.
