About
St Peter’s College invites you to attend our 2025 college production of West Side Story.
Set in 1950s New York City, the story centres around two young and idealistic lovers, who believe they can be together, despite their own allegiances to different warring street gangs, the “American” Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. Their struggle to survive in a world of hate, violence and prejudice makes for one of the most innovative, heart-wrenching and relevant musical dramas of our time.
Conceived by Jerome Robbins with music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and a book by Arthur Laurents, this production is not to be missed!
