I'm not really a big musical fan. I enjoyed 'West Side Story' when it came out, but it gets a bit tired in the end.

West Side Story.

We're going to call it the 'west side story' because there is a lot to tell.

My first big role was when I was 17 and I got the part playing Maria in 'West Side Story' in my school production.

We love 'Fiddler.' We love 'West Side Story.' I want to be in that club. I want to be in the club that writes the musical that every high school does.

Look at the darkest hit musicals - Cabaret, West Side Story, Carousel - they are exuberant experiences. They send you out of the theater filled with music.
