What does \u201cWest Side Story\u201d look like in 2026, one year shy of its 70th anniversary?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a little bit less about the looks and a little bit more about, \u2018How come we\u2019re still in the same place?\u2019\u201d director Ch\u00eda Pati\u00f1o said. \u201c\u2026We\u2019re back to people teaching to hate someone that is not like you and they\u2019re pushing people away. Even as people try to get together, you\u2019re pulling them apart. \u2026 Because society won\u2019t let them, you know? And society is teaching them to hate and to reject and not to see the humanity, but to stuff to stay in the differences and not to see that really, we\u2019re on the same, you know, there\u2019s one soul that\u2019s, you know, one hand, one soul. I find that just mind blowing, that the message is just as powerful today as it was 60 years ago, and we need to hear that: \u2018Let us be together.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWest Side Story\u201d combines local talent with guest artists from across the country. Pati\u00f1o hails from Ecuador, where she served as artistic and executive director for the Teatro Nacional Sucre; she is now an assistant professor in the department of voice and opera at the University of Michigan.<\/p>\n

Andrew Bidlack plays Tony, who gave up his membership in the Jets gang, but is drawn back to the streets by escalating conflicts between the Jets and the Puerto Rican gang known as the Sharks. Bidlack comes from Baltimore, while Cecilia Violetta L\u00f3pez, who plays Maria, was raised in Idaho and became general director and CEO of Opera Las Vegas last year. While L\u00f3pez and Bidlack have performed in concerts and shows around the world, both were surprised by the scope of the KSO production.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought until this morning that (the KSO musicians) were going to be on stage with us and we were going to be kind of in front of a crowd,\u201d Bidlack said, on the first night of rehearsals. \u201cSo, it\u2019s kind of exciting to know that they\u2019re going to be in the pit and we have a full set.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA full production with costumes, a set, everything,\u201d L\u00f3pez said.<\/p>\n

Racist Riff lets loose with a lot of anti-Puerto Rican slurs, particularly in his encounters with Sharks leader Bernardo (Emiliano Morales). That\u2019s difficult to say and to play, Horsburgh admitted.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been trying to think about it a lot,\u201d he said. \u201cLike, how am I supposed to tap into something like that? And I\u2019m not really sure I\u2019ve figured it out.<\/p>\n

\u201cBad characters always think that they\u2019re doing the right thing. That\u2019s how you justify all of your actions. So, I think it\u2019s just important to go back to how the Puerto Ricans have affected Riff\u2019s life personally, and why he is feeling all of these things, because there are reasons that he\u2019s feeling this way and acting this way.\u201d<\/p>\n

The rest of the cast includes Daniella Castoria as Anita, Owen Smith as Action, Quintin Steers as Baby John, and familiar local faces Michael P. Martin as the upbeat social worker Glad Hand, and Larry Bell as the perpetually disrespected Officer Krupke.<\/p>\n

Since it debuted in 1957, music and theater scholars have argued about whether \u201cWest Side Story\u201d is a musical or an opera, and the debate is still unresolved, even with this team.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile often considered musical theater, its emotional storytelling and the artistic demands placed upon the orchestra really give the piece an operatic feel,\u201d said music director Julian Kuerti.<\/p>\n

Pati\u00f1o was more direct. \u201cIs it an opera? Is it a musical?\u201d she asked. \u201cIt\u2019s a phenomenal piece \u2013 who cares?\u201d[\/vc_column_text][vc_button outline=”yes” border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fnowkalamazoo.org%2F2026%2F04%2Fhow-come-were-still-in-the-same-place%2F|target:_blank” uncode_shortcode_id=”176050″]NowKalamazoo[\/vc_button][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_empty_space empty_h=”2″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
