Could it be? Yes, it could. Something's coming, something good: A new episode!!! Hello Sharks and Jets, the Broadway Babies are headed to the West Side to review an adaptation of one of the most well-known stories ever told: Romeo and Juliet. Bernstein's "West Side Story" grabs ahold of racial and socioeconomic disparities of poor folks in a neighborhood and mixes them with Shakespearean tragedy to create this masterpiece that is still relevant today. Alex and Daisha will discuss the plot, production history, Bernstein's musical daring, and would it be an episode of Broadway Babies if Stephen Sondheim weren't in the mix somewhere?
