“The Summer Theatre’s production of West Side Story is about both the show and the experience—the young, energetic professional cast, live music and the beautiful sunset happening just behind the tent. Appealing to people of all ages, the theatre even goes so far as to sell old-fashioned glass Coke bottles and vintage sheet music.
It’s the perfect form of entertainment—to enjoy a warm summer night, a classic show with renowned songs and a young talented group of actors working together.”
