West Side Story opens at EPAC July 19

“West Side Story” is an epic fan-favorite musical written by Arthur Laurents with music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and concept and choreography by Jerome Robbins.
Teen rival gangs, the Jets and the Sharks, face more than turf wars in 1950s New York. They must confront the racism between whites and Puerto Ricans that tears them, and the city, apart. Based on Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” a forbidden romance buds between a boy and girl from the different gangs. Can their colorblind love overcome the racial tensions and end the feud?
West Side Story will run from July 19 through Aug. 4 at Sharadin Bigler Theatre, located at 320 Cocalico St., Ephrata.
Tickets can be purchased at ephrataperformingartscenter.com or by calling 717-733-7966 x1.
