est Side Story has been a part of my life almost as far back as I can
remember. When I was a child, I listened to the cast album on the
hi-fi system while lying on the floor in my family’s living room. At
fourteen, I was cast as Baby John in a local community theater production, and
then I played Action in a college production while at Northwestern University.
In my twenties, after staging the show at two different theaters in Chicago,
I had the unbelievable opportunity to make my Broadway debut in
Jerome Robbins’ Broadway, performing all of this incredible choreography under
the tutelage of the master himself, Jerome Robbins.
There is definitely something magical about this show. It is certainly a
timeless story, with an especially intelligent book and an unrivaled score, but I think what really
brings the show to life for each new generation is the fact that the story is about the loss of innocence.
In everyone’s life there is a moment that marks the portal between one’s childhood and the realities
and responsibilities that come with being an adult. Sometimes that event is wonderfully joyful, like
entering a career, meeting a love interest, or living on one’s own for the first time. Sometimes, as in
the case of this story, the event is a horrific tragedy that makes us realize it’s time to put aside our
petty, childish opinions and ignorance and instead look for the commonality and good in those
around us.
I am honored to have the opportunity to direct this spectacular production with this
incredibly talented cast. I hope that it will be enjoyed by those of you who, like me, grew up with West
Side Story in our lives, but I am most excited for the opportunity to introduce a new generation to
this extraordinary piece of musical theater and to the message of love and acceptance it has to offer.
