WEST SIDE STORY 50th ANNIVERSARY PRODUCTION Le Chatelet PARIS
In November of 2007 David took on the role of Tony in the 50th anniversary production of West Side Story for Theatre du Chatelet in Paris. The production was a smash hit and became the most commercially successful production ever staged at Le Chatelet. The French public and press loved the production and it played to packed houses every night. Tickets were so in demand that a cue would form around the block of the theatre every night full of people in hope of a retuned ticket. It received press coverage around the world and started David's now longstanding realtionship with Le Chatelet. The production was staged with the original in mind and contained the original choreography of Jerome Robbins. Below you will find audio excerpts from the production as well as appearances on German and French television as well as news coverage in Canada by the CBC.
