West Side Story Comes to Dallas

Don’t miss West Side Story at the  Dallas Summer Musicals,  October 4 – 23, 2011 at Music Hall at Fair Park.  

This is the show that changed musical  theater forever. Now West Side Story is  back in Dallas at the Music Hall, mesmerizing audiences once again. From the first note to the final breath, West Side Story soars as the greatest love story of all time.

Directed by its two-time Tony Award-winning librettist Arthur Laurents, West Side Story remains as powerful, poignant and timely as ever. 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.

The classic tale of “Romeo and Juliet” set in New York City in the 1950s. The two feuding families are replaced by brawling street gangs. The Montagues become the Anglo Jets, led by Riff, and the Capulets become the Puerto Rican Sharks, led by Bernardo. At a dance, Tony, former leader of the Jets and Riff’s best friend, and Maria, Bernardo’s little sister, see each other across the room and it’s love at first sight. With opposition from both sides, they meet secretly and their love grows deeper. However, the gangs are plotting one last rumble, a fight that will finally end the battle for control of the streets. Will Tony and Maria’s love carry through a battle that threatens to destroy the people they love around them?

What the Critics Are Saying About West Side Story

A MASTERPIECE! First-class production with a full-strength ensemble, killer dances and a 20 piece orchestra. Who could listen to the aching melody of “Somewhere” or “Maria” or “Tonight” and not feel a jolt in the heart?

-Chris Jones, Chicago Tribune

IRRESISTIBLE. The exhilarating choreography is high-jumping, fist-pumping and iconic, and the thrilling tunes still elicit tears.

–Melissa Rose Bernardo, Entertainment Weekly

“It is difficult to imagine a more GLORIOUS EXAMPLE of musical theatre.”

-Hedy Weiss, Chicago Sun-Times

The Ultimate Tailgate Party For Dallas Cowboy Games

Your Cowboys are back and now it’s time to plan your trip to Cowboys Stadium. The Ultimate Tailgate Party in association with Sports Travel Tours has created the best tailgate party in Arlington.

All-You-Can-Eat BBQ From Eddie Deen

First up, they have a great location right opposite Cowboys Stadium where the party kicks off 3 hours before game time. Then,  there is the hospitality and entertainment – the delicious,  all-you-can-eat BBQ is  prepared by one of the Metroplex’s great chefs,  Eddie Deen. There is  also a great selection of beers, wines and sodas (all included in your admission ticket price). There will be a cash bar available to purchase other beverages.

Live Entertainment

Every pre-game party will feature a live band performance, giant screen TVs showing all the pre-game build-up and interactive games. The facility itself has 18,000 sq. feet of climate controlled indoor space and more than one acre of outdoor space, so whatever the weather, you’ll have a great tailgating experience.

This is the ultimate way to get pumped up before the game, and they will be there for every Cowboys game, as well as all the huge NCAA games this fall. They provide free parking at select locations along with shuttle transfers to and from the tailgate party.
