Winner of ten Oscar awards, this electrifying musical sets the ageless tragedy of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet in the slums of 1950s New York. Teenage street gang The Jets is preparing to fight rival Puerto Rican gang, The Sharks. The gangs meet at a dance to arrange the rumble, and Jets co-founder Tony falls in love at first sight with the beautiful Maria, sister of The Sharks leader Bernardo. Tony tries to limit the weapons to fists, but the fighting soon gets out of control, with disastrous consequences…
