About Something's Coming

 


 

An American in Paris

Veteran turned painter, Jerry Mulligan, falls in love with young Lise Bouvier. However, his paintings grab the attention of Milo Roberts, a wealthy American heiress, who is interested in more than just his art.

 


 

The Red Shoes

A young woman with aspirations to become a prima ballerina admires a mysterious pair of red pointe shoes, which she soon learns are endowed with magical powers. An eerie ballet full of mystery and dance!

 


 

The Sound of Music

A heartwarming story, based on the real-life story of the Von Trapp Family singers, preceding World War II. A free-spirited woman becomes a governess in the home of a widowed naval captain with seven children and brings a new love of life and music into the home.

 


 

West Side Story

The award-winning adaptation of the classic romantic tragedy "Romeo and Juliet," centering around two feuding NYC gangs– the Sharks and the Jets. Their hatred escalates to a point where neither can coexist with any form of understanding. Featuring the famous Leonard Bernstein score and inspired by the talent of choreographer Jerome Robbins.

 


 

Fiddler on The Roof

Oscar-winning adaptation of the Broadway musical about life among the Jewish community of a pre-revolutionary Russian village. A poor milkman, determined to find good husbands for his five daughters, consults the traditional matchmaker—and also has a word with God.
