I do think there were some ppl seeing the show for the first time last night, since someone asked. There were quite a few jokes/appearances, etc that happen to be hysterical and I laughed, but they def got the amount and loudness of laughter from ppl who were seeing and hearing things for the first time.
"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
