Press Release

Chagrin Valley Little Theatre

Presents "West Side Story"

July 22, 2004 : When Jerome Robbins, Leonard Bernstein and Arthur =
Laurents originally conceived the idea of writing a musical version of =
William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, they planned to call it East =
Side Story and center it around a star-crossed romance between a Jewish =
boy and an Italian Catholic girl.  Because of other commitments, =
however, they were forced to shelve the project for six years, and by =
the time they returned to it, they decided that this idea had lost its =
social relevancy.  Instead, they would tell the story of a native-born =
Polish boy and a Puerto Rican girl newly arrived in America-and they =
would set it against the backdrop of clashing street gangs on the city's =
west side.  West Side Story opened at the Winter Garden Theatre on =
September 26, 1957, and the movie was released in 1961.
