I didn't go. My sister was in her last year of Med School, and we were planning a trip to the midwest to see some stadiums and do some sight-seeing. Her vacation happened to fall during the time of my prom. Hmm, week on a road trip in a different part of country, or one dance that probably wouldn't cost me that much less than the trip? It was an easy decision.
Besides, my friends planned to go to a comedy club after. Someone had the wrong time so apparently they spent 2 hours fighting in the limo.
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli
