Cork Opera House presents

West Side Story

More than fifty years ago, a show about New York City changed musical theatre forever. From the first notes to the final breath, West Side Story is one of the most memorable musicals and greatest love stories of all time. Arthur Laurents’ book remains powerful, poignant and timely as ever. The score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim – a collection of standards that includes Tonight, America, Maria, ‘I Feel Pretty’ and Somewhere is widely regarded as one of the best ever written. And the extraordinary, Tony- winning choreography by Jerome Robbins completely changed the language of Broadway dance.

This new production, directed by Bryan Flynn offers a bold new presentation that builds on the show’s raw power and emotion to create a fresh musical theatre experience. Don’t miss this thrilling presentation of matchless work of art.

Featuring a 40 strong cast and 20 piece orchestra.
