Laurents), as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between
warring street gangs, the =B3American=B2 Jets and the Puerto Rican 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.  WEST SIDE STORY=B9s exciting, sophisticated score (music by Leonard
Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim) is often considered Broadway=B9s
finest, with songs that have become part of the nation=B9s musical heritage:
Something=B9s Coming, Maria, Tonight, America, I Feel Pretty, and Somewhere t=

Leslee) is an a cappella doo-wop musical set in the Brooklyn of 1963 where
Italian-Americans stay on one side of the street and African-Americans on
the other.  Volatile issues and effectively nostalgic rock-and-roll history
emerge when two youthful singers from different sides of the street put
together an act for a talent show at the legendary Fox Theater.  AVENUE X i=
s
the only musical to have received the Richard Rodgers Development and
Production Awards and the Kleban Librettist=B9s Award.  It began as a worksho=
