West Side Story on Sydney Harbour

West Side Story exploded onto Broadway in a sensational storm of exuberant dance and wistful romance.

This year, the landmark musical takes the iconic stage at Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour, with famous songs including ‘Tonight, ‘I Feel Pretty’ and ‘America’ ringing out into the balmy night air.

Featuring fireworks every night and a pop-up venue with comfortable grandstand seating, you’re sure to have a night to remember.

Raise a glass as the sun sets and drink in the view as you share a meal in one of the five bars and restaurants on site. Then sit back to enjoy the enthralling show, complete with live orchestra hidden beneath the dramatic stage and state-of-the-art sound design so you’ll hear every note.

Encounter the wildness of youth and ecstasy of love as this modern day Romeo and Juliet unfolds under a starlit sky. On the mean streets of New York's West Side, two rival gangs strut their stuff. But when a Jet falls for a Shark, the stage is set for a rumble.

From the award-winning toilets through to the spectacular stage, Handa Opera on Sydney Harbour “ticks every box imaginable for a Great Night Out” (Time Out).

17 April will be a relaxed performance, captioned and audio described. Guests are allowed to come and go from their seats and venue lights will remain on at low levels. Some lighting or sound features of the show may also be adjusted minimally. For more information, call the Opera Australia Box Office on 02 9318 8200 or email ticketing@opera.org.au.
