Letter - Joel Rosenblatt

My daughter Laurie lives in Glendale and I was out there to visit her

the beginning of April.

When my daughter lived here in New York, my wife and I would take her

into Manhattan to see Broadway shows quite often. In fact, many people

have said that my daughter (now in her 20s) has seen more shows than they

have in a lifetime!

Anyway, I wanted to let you know that while walking around the

neighborhood, I happened to come across the Glendale Centre Theatre. They

were performing “West Side Story.’ I was so excited to find theater away

from home (although, realistically, I know theater exists everywhere),

but I said to my daughter, “Why don’t we go see this?”). She agreed

immediately.

We went to see the performance April 5. I must say, that in my

opinion, we will be hearing from some of these actors. They were so

focused, so professional. They were what we call a “triple threat.” They

sing, act, and dance. It was a wonderful performance.

Anyone that is interested in theater should definitely visit the

Glendale Center Theatre when they are in that city.

Thank you, Glendale Centre Theatre, for an extraordinary evening of

theater with this classic musical.

“Break a leg!”
