Jason Fraley interviews Broadway star Shereen Pimentel, who played Maria in the 2020 Broadway revival of “West Side Story” and returns to the role TONIGHT, TONIGHT in a special new production by the Washington National Opera at The Lyric in Baltimore, Maryland on May 8-10, followed by the Strathmore in North Bethesda, Maryland on May 14-15. They discuss how the show's timeless themes of The Sharks vs. The Jets can heal our divisive political climate that caused the WNO to leave the Kennedy Center after 55 years.
