More than fifty years ago one musical changed theatre forever. Now it’s back, and mesmerizing audiences once again. This exciting new Broadway production is the longest running, most successful WEST SIDE STORY ever to play Broadway and features both English and
Spanish dialogue and lyrics. The result is a powerful and ideal balance, offering audiences the most authentic emotional expression of the piece that enhances its universality.

From the first note to the final breath, WEST SIDE STORY soars as the greatest love story of all time. Directed by David Saint, using Tony Award®-winning librettist Arthur Laurents’ Broadway direction, WEST SIDE STORY remains as powerful, poignant and timely as ever. The new Broadway cast album of WEST SIDE STORY recently won the 2010 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Show Album. The Bernstein and Sondheim score is considered to be one of Broadway’s finest and features such classics of the American musical theatre as “Something’s Coming,” “Tonight,” “America,” ”I Feel Pretty,” and “Somewhere.”

SHREK THE MUSICAL, based on the Oscar®-winning DreamWorks film that started it all, brings the hilarious story of everyone’s favorite ogre to life on stage.

In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre – not a handsome prince – shows up to rescue a feisty princess. Throw in a donkey who won’t shut up, a villain with a SHORT temper, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you’ve got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero. Luckily, there’s one on hand… and his name is Shrek.

Featuring a terrific score of 19 all-new songs, big laughs, great dancing and breathtaking scenery, WWOR-TV proclaims SHREK THE MUSICAL, “FAR, FAR AND AWAY THE FUNNIEST NEW MUSICAL ON BROADWAY!”

SHREK THE MUSICAL is part romance, part twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun for everyone!

This moving, funny, and uplifting production, that won four Tony® Awards including BEST MUSICAL, is about a community of hard-working immigrants seeking a better life and trying to find their place - their home - in their new country. It's impossible not to fall in love with the remarkable young cast whose energy is invigorating and whose talent is thrilling. The dynamic score, which earned a Tony Award for Lin-Manuel Miranda who conceived the show and wrote the music and lyrics, will have you swaying and bouncing in your seat! IN THE HEIGHTS is a modern musical that honours Broadway traditions; the music and dance will exhilarate you, and the journey will transport you.

IN THE HEIGHTS invites you to a place you've probably never been, but which you'll recognize immediately. The show is set in a Latino neighbourhood in the Washington Heights section of New York City, where the residents move to the sounds of hip hop and Latin music. But their stories and hopes and dreams cut across race and ethnicity, and are instantly familiar. They sometimes sing or speak in Spanish, but their thoughts and emotions are so clear that even those of you who don't speak the language will think you're bilingual!

Find out what it takes to make a living, what it costs to have a dream and what it means to be home ... IN THE HEIGHTS.
