"West Side Story" tells the story of star-crossed lovers Tony and Maria as they struggle to rise above the hatred and intolerance that surrounds them. "West Side Story" is viewed as one of the greatest love stories of all time, and remains powerful and poignant today. The Bernstein and Sondheim score is considered to be one of Broadway's finest and features such classics of the American musical theatre as "Something's Coming," "Tonight," "America," "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere." Michigan native and Calvin College graduate, Addison Reid Coe, stars as Tony in this new tour.
According to the Associated Press, "West Side Story" is "...Broadway's best dance-driven musical. Five decades have not dimmed the extraordinary choreography or the score that pulsates throughout."
