West Side Story original Broadway cast on stage singing Maria & Tonight

I do not believe this is from the original broadway production. Based on the hair styles, clothing, and color film, I would think this is more likely a remake for a television show in the mid to late 1960s such as the Kraft Television Hour.

@lfWolf Yeah I have seen this before and I believe you are right, it is from a tv show in the mid to late 60's. Can't remember which one. I think it was on the bluegobo website at one point.

It's so sad that this only has 6000 views while the glee version will get millions.

@broadwaybeat ? What's so bad about Glee? It's a fine show.

Many thanks to "57wss" for this and for the wwwrun4us website. This is a wonderful piece of beauty and history. To me, "West Side Story," is the greatest show ever to run on Broadway (and it could have run at The Met with equal success).
