Story for When Everything Was Possible
Following their inner music, two kids came to the biggest city in the world and went to work. They didn’t want to be famous - they wanted to be good. And in the summer of ’68, as the world flew apart, these two unknowns held court at the State Theatre at Lincoln Center, captivating audiences as Tony and Maria in West Side Story. They worked, lived, grew close, grew up, made mistakes and finally... parted. Thirty-six years would pass until they would meet again, and they found they still had a few things left to say - and sing.
