West Side Story-Historical Rehearsal-Original Cast members

melvynny Says:

Mar 13, 2009 - Saw the preview last week--and the original many, many years ago--nothing has been lost--actually think the new production is better, except for Bernardo. If you don't enjoy this, don't go to any musical--WSS is the equal to Fiddler, Carousel, and Showboat.

Mar 27, 2009 - Wow. I haven't read all the comments on this ... but I can't be the only one watching the dancers interact and thinking, "who's that woman - I mean, I've seen that woman ... " Except, of course, much better adjusted!

Apr 16, 2009 - This really made me smile but made me sad at the same time. How wonderful to see those actors getting the respect they deserve. Here they are performing such legendary songs that so many years ago they introduced to the world!

May 11, 2009 - AAAAHHHH Amazing video!!!! I'm making a magazine on musical theater (stupid project) and while doing research I stumbled on this video and I love it! It's so hard to find footage of the actors from the original cast.

Jul 16, 2009 - why don't you just use their websites or email them. I can give you some of the west side story actor emails from the 1960 movie if you like. just don't harass them. none of them are very technologically inclined.

Sep 30, 2009 - this was great, I remember watching this as a kid, and never fully understanding it, until a few years ago, while going through separation from my husband(mixed marriage) but pain is pain...so my hat is off to the characters of Tony/Maria, it still happens today, God help them...anyway, I thoroughly enjoyed this peace :)

Oct 14, 2009 - Bravo! Thank you so much! Just found this, and it was so moving -- seeing Chita, Carol Lawrence, Tony Mordante and other original cast members work with the younger folk, really demonstrates how timeless "West Side Story" is....

Oct 17, 2009 - WOW!!! West Side Story was my introduction to the musical, the movies and to America back in 1963. It has remained my all time favorite musical. This clip brought a smile to my face, tears to my eyes and warmth to my heart....Thank You
