West Side Story Broadway Show – Don't Miss This Classic Tale of Love and Conflict

West Side Story Explores Love and War in 1950's New York

Musical
Whether you are a theater aficionado or a first timer to Broadway musicals, West Side Story is the show for you. It is dark, emotionally devastating, and brooding. Yes, it is a love story but like Romeo and Juliet before it, West Side Story is ultimately a tragedy. It is a reminder of what we as people are capable of destroying with hatred and anger. However, West Side Story is also a masterpiece. The show features a full orchestra – something that is hard to find on Broadway these days. Set to incredible, iconic music, the dance and show choreography is so effective and poignant that you won’t be able to take your eyes off of the stage.

West Side Story tells the tale of the love between Tony and Maria. Amid the backdrop of New York City in the 1950’s, Tony and Maria are two young people from rival gangs. They meet each other as they are both trying to escape their current lives and instantly fall in love. New York at that time was full of racism and class tension and these tense feelings are undercurrents throughout the dramatic show. As Tony and Maria fall further in love, violence between their gangs and families escalates and innocent lives are lost in the crossfire.

Ultimately, West Side Story is about undying love and overcoming the odds. Despite their respective families and gangs feelings about their relationship, Tony and Maria’s feelings and devotion to each other manages to endure and blossom. West Side Story Broadway show is a must see for everyone. Let Applause-Tickets help you find the perfect seats to this unforgettable performance.
