  • West Side Story” (Original Cast Recording) (1957) Added to the National Registry: 2008 Essay by Robert L
    “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.

My wife and I love spending time with friends and family over the holiday season. I’m thrilled that our production of Annie has brought together so many members of our extended theatrical family to share with us this special time of the year. You’ll recognize many of our actors on stage as they perform the Grammy and Tony Award- winning songs during this heartwarming production. I’m delighted that you’ve taken the time to be with us today. Upstairs in our Independence Studio on 3, we have It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play. I hope you’ll join us for this holiday classic, based on the iconic film. Set in a 1940s radio studio on a crisp Photo: Mark Garvin Christmas Eve, we have five enchanting actors and an array of live sound effects captivating audiences nightly with their storytelling. This production is the perfect way to continue to celebrate the season with your loved ones.
