Step aside Romeo and Juliet, here comes West Side Story. Tickets are already available for one of the biggest musicals of all time
The Lion King isn’t the only huge musical coming our way; yet another one of Broadway’s biggest spectacles makes its way back on 13 September. West Side Story – the iconic ’50s twist on Shakespeare’s famous tragedy (or love story) takes the stage at Marina Bay Sands, and we absolutely can’t wait to belt out numbers like“Maria”, “Tonight”, “I Feel Pretty” and “America” (ahem, warming up our vocal chords as we speak).
With its concoction of romance, tragedy, gang violence and societal issues, as well as innovative choreography to a captivating score, this award-winning Broadway production is bound to leave you awestruck. Strap on for a roller coaster of emotions as you catch the story of these two star-crossed lovers.
You’ll no doubt find yourself singing along lyric-by-lyric to this show, or busting a move or two in your seats. We know we will.
West Side Story, 13 September onwards, Grand Theatre, MasterCard Theatres at Marina Bay Sands, 10 Bayfront Avenue, Singapore 018956. Ticket prices start from $55 (excluding booking fee of $4 per ticket) at Marina Bay Sands ticketing and SISTIC.
