The musical's plot is based on William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet

Set in New York in the mid-1950s, the musical explores the rivalry between the Jets and the Sharks, two teenage street gangs of different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. The members of the Sharks are first-generation Americans from Puerto Rico, taunted by the Jets, a group who consider themselves the true Americans. The young protagonist, Tony, one of the Jets, falls in love with Maria, the sister of Bernardo, the leader of the Sharks.

It features popular songs including “Something’s Coming”, “Maria”, “America”, “Somewhere”, “Tonight” and “I feel pretty”

Auditions have now been held and most of the parts cast.

A message from our Director

“Our thanks to all those who auditioned for “West Side Story”.

The standard of singing and acting was extremely high. Those who auditioned for the part of Maria in particular were superb; we could provide Marias for half a dozen shows simultaneously and we have still not made the final decision as can be seen below.

If you have not been given the part you wanted, I can only say that I am sorry. But be assured, there will still be plenty of opportunity to shine on stage and plenty of fun to be shared while achieving the high standards we need to present to our audience.”
