Young lovers, Maria and Tony, are caught between prejudice and warring street gangs, the Jets and the Sharks, in this seminal retelling of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. Transported to 1950s New York City, we explore themes of love, prejudice, and the destructive nature of gang violence. Exhibiting the tragic consequences of hatred and the power of love to transcend societal divisions.
