to CyberClassics: Romeo and Juliet
Romeo and Juliet both die in Shakespeare's play, yet Maria lives on in "West Side Story," which is based on the story of Romeo and Juliet. Why do you think the team that collaborated on "West Side Story" might have made this artistic decision? Do you agree with it?
