Jacob Caltrider and Jessica Soza to Lead San Diego Musical Theatre's WEST SIDE STORY, Running 2/13-3/1

San Diego Musical Theatre announces the first production of their 2015 season, WEST SIDE STORY, February 13 - March 1, 2015 (press opening on Saturday, February 14) at their new home, the Spreckels Theatre on Broadway in downtown San Diego.

The world's greatest love story takes to the streets in this landmark Broadway musical that is one of the theatre's finest accomplishments. Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet is transported to modern-day New York City, as two young idealistic lovers find themselves caught between warring street gangs, the "American" Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice is one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching and relevant musical dramas of our time.

Music by Leonard Bernstein, Lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and Book by Arthur Laurents.
