From the first note to the last breath, West Side Story is one of the most important and representative musicals of universal theater. The score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim is unanimously recognized as one of the best in the history of musicals. Arthur Laurens ' text remains as poignant and current as it was on day one, and Jerome Robbins ' original choreography has a place of honor in contemporary dance legend. Hand in hand with him, the greatest love story takes to the streets of New York to become one of the milestones of musical theater of all time.

In West Side Story , Arthur Laurens transports Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet to New York City, where two young lovers find themselves caught up in a clash between two street gangs: the "American" Jets and the Puerto Rican Sharks. His struggle to survive in an environment of hate, violence and prejudice shapes one of the most exciting, beautiful and relevant stories in musical theater.

In addition to his work, which took him to the world's leading orchestras and allowed him to collaborate with the most famous soloists, he also composed for concerts, ballets, theater and cinema. He specialized in jazz and contemporary music, with instrumental compositions as successful as his vocal pieces. His best known works are Fancy Free (1944), On the Town (1944), Peter Pan (1950), Trouble in Tahiti (1952), Wonderful Town(1952), Candide (1956), West Side Story (1957) , Chichester Psalms (1965), 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue (1976), and A Quiet Place (1983).

To celebrate the event, on September 22, 2017, the Leonard Bernstein At 100 space was inaugurated at the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts (Washington DC) , to promote and coordinate the worldwide celebration of the centennial that will last until on August 25 of this same year 2019.

In the new millennium, his legacy resonates more than ever and in this context of worldwide tribute the premiere of this great production of West Side Story is framedwhich stops this summer at the Arriaga Theater. As the stage director of this show, Federico Barrios, says, “ West Side Story is not a tale of princes and princesses or impossible dreams, it is a global and eternal story that shows us the need to prioritize the human over gender, borders and the races. An ever-current story that speaks of immigration, fears, acceptance, hopes, redemption and, above all, speaks of love”. Indeed, West Side Story is eternal, always current and current.
