So, I've been watching clips of the cast of West Side Story (like on Good Morning America or promo clips) and I've noticed that whenever they sing America they don't sing the third verse ("I'll bring a TV to San Juan"/"If there's a current to turn on..."). For those who has seen the show, I'm asking, did they cut that verse out, or did they just edit the song for TV time purposes (like how they do with the title song for In the Heights)?
