    “West Side Story” (Original cast recording) (1957) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Robert L. McLaughlin (guest essay)* Original “West Side Story” cast members at recording session (from left: Elizabeth Taylor, Carmen Gutierrez, Marilyn Cooper, Carol Lawrence) “West Side Story” is among the best and most important of Broadway musicals. It was both a culmination of the Rodgers and Hammerstein integrated musical, bringing together music, dance, language and design in service of a powerful narrative, and an arrow pointing toward the future, creating new possibilities for what a musical can be and how it can work. Its cast recording preserves its score and the original performances. “West Side Story’s” journey to theater immortality was not easy. The show’s origins came in the late 1940s when director/choreographer Jerome Robbins, composer Leonard Bernstein, and playwright Arthur Laurents imagined an updated retelling of “Romeo and Juliet,” with the star- crossed lovers thwarted by their contentious Catholic and Jewish families. After some work, the men decided that such a musical would evoke “Abie’s Irish Rose” more than Shakespeare and so they set the project aside. A few years later, however, Bernstein and Laurents were struck by news reports of gang violence in New York and, with Robbins, reconceived the piece as a story of two lovers set against Caucasian and Puerto Rican gang warfare. The musical’s “Prologue” establishes the rivalry between the Jets, a gang of white teens, children mostly of immigrant parents and claimants of a block of turf on New York City’s west side, and the Sharks, a gang of Puerto Rican teens, recently come to the city and, as the play begins, finally numerous enough to challenge the Jets’ dominion.

Assaf Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is transported to modern-day New York City, as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the "American" 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. 3 | P a g e West Side Story tells a tale of cultural conflict. There is a clash between people of European descent (the Jets) and those of Puerto Rican decent (the Sharks.) Culture encompasses many things and is embodied by many things. Often, when we hear this word “culture” we think of the arts. Art is can embody culture and display it, visually (paintings, photographs, sculptures) or through sound and movement (music, dance or theater.) Art can depict the style of clothing or hair, types of food people like to eat, or celebrations that are important to them.

  • West Side Story As Shakespearean Tragedy and a Celebration of Love and Forgiveness
    “The Boy Must Die? Yes, the Boy Must Die”: West Side Story as Shakespearean Tragedy and a Celebration of Love and Forgiveness West Side Story is based on Shakespeare’s tragedy, Romeo and Juliet, and is considered to be one of the finest adaptations of a Shakespearean play ever written. The structure of the first act of West Side Story follows almost exactly the structure of the first three acts of Romeo and Juliet. And the major characters of West Side Story, Tony and Maria, are parallels to Romeo and Juliet. The opening fight between the Jets and the Sharks mirrors the fight between the Montagues and Capulets and this fight is broken up by the modern American representation of the law, Officer Krupke, instead of the Prince who weighs in against the two warring clans in Renaissance Verona. In both the modern musical and the Renaissance tragedy, the opening scene, in the manner of Greek tragedy, lays bare the plague that afflicts society—unchecked violence exacerbated by extreme prejudice. The two scenes that follow, the introduction of Romeo/Tony, and of Juliet/Maria, depict the longing of the young to escape from this plague. Romeo/Tony knows that the current trajectory of his life is meaningless and hopes that a new path will open up for him. And Juliet/Maria does not want to marry within the narrow confines of her familial/ethnic group, seeking instead to forge her own path for her own life. Thus the conflict between the protagonists and an antagonistic society is established. When Romeo/Tony and Juliet/Maria meet and fall in love in the next two scenes, the dance and balcony scenes, this conflict is set in motion.

Placing the film within its context of Hollywood musicals, I see West Side Story as a particularly rich locus in which to study the genre’s modernist impulses.

  • Developmental Cross Training Repertoire for Musical Theatre
    Developmental Cross Training Repertoire for Musical Theatre Women The repertoire suggestions below target specific developmental goals. It is important to keep in mind however that the distinguishing characteristic of musical theatre singing is the variability of tonal resonance within any given song. A predominantly soprano song might suddenly launch into a belt moment. A chest dominant ballad may release into a tender soprano. Story always pre-empts musical choices. “Just You Wait” from My Fair Lady is part of the soprano canon but we would be disappointed if Eliza could not tell Henry Higgins what she really felt. In order to make things easier for beginning students, it’s a good idea to find repertoire with targeted range and consistent quality as students develop skill in coordinating registration. Soprano Mix—Beginner, Teens to Young Adult Examples of songs to help young sopranos begin to feel functionally confident and enthusiastic about characters and repertoire. Integrating the middle soprano is a priority and it is wise to start there. My Ship Lady in the Dark Weill Far from the Home I Love Fiddler on the Roof Bock/ Harnick Ten Minutes Ago Cinderella Rodgers/Hammerstein Mr. Snow Carousel Rodgers/Hammerstein Happiness is a Thing Called Joe Cabin in the Sky Arlen/Harburg One Boy Bye Bye Birdie Strouse/Adams Dream with Me Peter Pan Bernstein Just Imagine Good News!
