West Side Storytransfers Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to modern-day New York. The love story of Romeo and Juliet becomes that of Maria and Tony.

The famous balcony scene of the Shakespeare drama transpires on a fire-escape of an ugly New York tenement.The East Brunswick High School Drama Club presents the Leonard Bernstein musical "West Side Story" on Fridays and Saturdays, March 8, 9, 15, 16 (7:00 PM).
