West Side Story



Tonight we saw West Side Story at the Comedia Musical. El Torero had never seen the production before. It was a much more modern version and slightly shorter in length. Of course it was all in Spanish, including the songs. However, the names of the gangs escaped translation. They are still the Jets and the Sharks.! "Play it cool, boy....real cool....."
I love this musical, and it was fun to see this rendition. The US Embassy, along with other organizations, helped fund the musical.

I too haven't seen West Side Story. Considering I'm on the west coast I probably should have. =) I'm sure the US embassy had something to do with the Jets and Sharks. I'm happy you two can get some play time and movie time in with the work.

The site change is good. I liked the darker colors better. =)

Great photos. I love the blur on the dancers-- very dynamic. Sounds like a great show.

What fun it must have been to see a play in spanish! Were you able to follow along? I like the picture you posted, did you buy a new camera for the trip? It's great to hear what you two are up to.
