a musical date

Scott and I went to see Boston Conservatory's West Side Story, a 50th anniversary commemoration. Leonard Bernstein's daughter is coming to give a lecture this weekend! The head of my department, Neil Donohoe directed it and one of the choreographers, Stephen Reed, has multiple credits on Broadway and worked extensively with Tim Robbins, the original director of the 1961 film version, before he died. It was a terrific collaboration. Never have I seen such an energetic and fresh rendition. What fun...
