I haven't posted for quite a long time...
I recently received videos and audios of the new revival of West Side Story from a source which I am keeping secret for now.
I’m absolutely stunned by the choreography of the show. It’s very tightly-knit/ The set looks great too and the costumes are very appropriate. Karen Olivo (In the Heights) is an amazing Anita and Josefina Scaglione (Hairspray - Argentina) is innocent and charming as Maria. Matt Cavenaugh (Grey Gardens, Urban Cowboy) is good as Tony but sometimes he seems to be focusing on his blocking more than emotion. But then again, I’m only judging from these files I’ve seen/heard. I can’t compare it to the recent STAGES production either.
Well, anyway, you can find some clips of the songs from the new production AND even hear the new Spanish translations done by Lin Manuel-Miranda (In the Heights) at my YOUTUBE ACCOUNT: ateneodude
