West Side Story REVIEW

I'm not going to tell you the story so if you dont know it... watch the movie haha

Any way 1 being the worst 5 being the best

SET - 3: it was ok, much better the chicago's set, but it still wasnt the best. The fight scene's set was amazing though. They had this huge fence come down and the players were jumping on it and off. That was cool. But everything else was slide on and offs and once in a while the backdrop would change.

COSTUME - 5: If you saw the movie... just like it.

CHOREOGRAPHY- 200: AMAZING! They were jumping, kicking, lifting, tumbling, rolling, and all this GREAT stuff. The scene in the gym with the dance... TOO GOOD! God, it was great. And that scene is when i fell in love. She is the best actress and singer and dancer i know! Too bad she's married. Natalie Cortez (Anita) was just... ahhhhhhhhhhh- beautiful!

SINGING- 3: The two leads (Maria and Tony) both sucked. Tony sounded like a girl and Maria had a whiny voice. Ew! Everyone else was good though. So when there were duets with only maria and tony... cover your ears.

ACTING- 4: Towards the begining, i must say, i wasnt drawn into it. It felt too fake, but as the show progressed, they pulled me right in! Then the end when maria has to cry over tony... she sucked at fake crying, i must saw. Normally that part gives me chills, but she took them away. Not ruining the show though, Natalie Cortez made up for Josephina Scaglione's (Maria) part.

OVERALL- 4.2: Wonderful! Go see it! If you havent seen the movie, see the movie BEFORE you see the musical, it helps in plot and understanding it better.
