Deaf Side Story
''Deaf Side Story'' is a musical based on ''West Side Story'', itself an adaptation of William Shakespeare's play ''Romeo and Juliet''. Takes place in New York City during the mid-1950s, the musical based on West Side Story explores the rivalry between the two gangs Jets and the Sharks, two teenage street gangs of different cultural backgrounds (Deaf and Hearing). The members of the Sharks from Puerto Rico are taunted by the Jets, a white working-class group. The young protagonist, Tony, one of the Jets, falls in love with Maria, the sister of Bernardo, the leader of the Sharks. The theme, music, and dances focus on culture problems.
==Background==
The well-known American musical ''West Side Story'' has been staged many times. However, a Deaf school in Jacksonville and MacMurray College in Illinois remade the musical into ''Deaf Side Story''. Diane Brewer, drama instructor was determined to put on a performance by having deaf students and hearing students perform the well-known musical West Side Story. Deaf Side Story presented an amazing narrative of Brewer cast and play. The musical is a rivalry between Sharks and Jets, two teenage gangs of different ethnic backgrounds. Members of the Sharks gang are from Puerto Rico and the members of the Jets are white working class group. Just like the storyline of ''Romeo and Juliet'' by William Shakespeare’s Maria, sister of Bernando leader of the Sharks, falls in love with Tony member of the Jets, which was not accepted by either gang. ''Deaf Side Story'' portrays similarities from West Side Story, however in this storyline two different cultures are shown, Deaf culture and the hearing world.
