Johnny and I took Jenna, our eighteen year-old granddaughter, to see West Side Story at the Straz Center for the Performing Arts this past week. We all loved it! Of course, I spotted some Blue!
The dancing was amazing. Look at the vertical jump. Look at the air space! Also, please note the beautiful Blue costumes.
Her voice was superb!
Happy Blue Monday!

Oh my Gosh Sweet Sally, we had to watch this in grade school back in Cali ... Turns out LOTS of grade school kids still do watch it or read it evenm now...
And a fun bit of info for you, any time Kent and I travel though a town on one of our business trips and the town West Side is passed through he and I snap our fingers until we've driven all the way thru it.. Which doesn't take long since its a small town...
Anyhoo's,, sorry for the short novel there Sis...
May you wake each day with God's blessing,and grace.
Sleep each night with His keeping,
safe in His loving arms.
And~~~ May you always walk in His tender care and mercy.
Prayers and Hugs~~~Dena

Happy Blue Monday, Sally.
West Side Story is a long-time favorite of mine. I first saw if when I was in high school, and I loved it so much I purchased the album. My poor mother had to listen to me play it repeatedly.
Bet that had your toe tapping. I saw the original movie and loved it. Of course that might have been because I grew up in Brooklyn...lol...Happy Blue Monday Sally.
i love to watch theater play one day.
have a nice Monday
I have not seen it. We'll have to make a point of doing so. Wow! Look at the energy and colors!! Love it.
Have a great day.
Spectacular shots, Sally!
Wonderful shots! The show looks amazing!
love the blur dress,
the dancing image is stunning...
Happy Blue Monday.
I would love to see West Side Story. As a little girl I would act out the whole movie while playing the album. I love the songs.
West Side Story...a beautiful musical. Great photos!
Happy Blue Monday!
Coralie
Sally, looks like we had the same theme in mind, but with a different meaning. Your cast from a great play and mine from playing.
I hope i can see like that one day... happy blue Monday...
Happy Blue Monday!

One of my favorite musicals to see on stage. All the songs are great. The picture of the girls with the dresses is perfect---how they all syncronized all together is amazing. Love the blue one.

Hello Sally, I did do a post today and was so busy I forgot to link. This was garden club day and there was no time this am for anything but get ready and go. I actually did this post this past Friday and pre dated it to post last night. Sigh.
I have seen the movie but the play sounds awesome. If I ever have the opportunity I would surely go. The photos you shared are wonderful. What a wonderful treat for your granddaughter. You are awesome grandparents. I mean it!
My eyes are improving but still red. It takes a long time to recover completely. I can see and I feel great. Thank you again for your prayers Sally.
Have a happy day today and always.
Warm Hugs, Jeanne

Hi Sally *hugs*
I haven't seen West Side Story and I really should if I had the chance. Your pictures are wonderful...and I see the blues in there for sure. I can't imagine how they jumped up soooo high like that. Live performances are wonderful aren't they. You are so lucky to have been able to see the performance and with your granddaughter too.
I'm glad you had such a good time.
Judi
(p.s. I won't tell Johnny about the painting...*s*...I managed many years with that story..*lol*...in my previous "life" as I call it...)
These photos are extraordinary. I haven't seen West Side Story, but I would like to go sometime. I enjoyed my visit to your blog today.
Back again to say thank you for the positive words you left on my blog. I am also glad God is watching over my daughter.
Girl, ya can only imagine how 'West Side Story' sets me off singin'! Ya know how I love a great tune!
Those pictures truly capture the moments in action!
Have a great weekend sweetie filled with wonderfully warm blessings! :o)
One of my favorite musicals...just a joy to hear and see! Leave it to you to find the pretty blue!
Love,
Sue
