West Side Story

West Side Story premiered on Broadway in 1957.  The story was inspired by William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, with music written by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim.
                   The classic film came out in 1961 starring Natalie Wood and Richard Beymer.
The street gangs - The Sharks vs. the Jets

                                  It's always I good day when I find myself singing "I feel Pretty"

I think this song "Cool" is so great.

Here is an instrumental version of "Cool", it's actually better without the words.

                   I always love a love story.  Here is the famous "Tonight" sung on the balcony.

    I remember watching 'tonight' as a little girl feeling all the emotion and wanting to grow up and be in love. This is the first time I've seen it since i've 'been in love' and happy to say that love makes what was just a world a star :) Thanks for the reminder!
