Matt Cavenaugh and Josefina Scaglione will portray the star-crossed lovers in the Leonard Bernstein-Stephen Sondheim-Arthur Laurents musical set against the backdrop of New York City street gangs. Cavenaugh was seen last season in New York as the groom in "A Catered Affair" and previously appeared in such Broadway musicals as "Grey Gardens" and "Urban Cowboy." Scaglione, a 21-year-old opera singer from Argentina, will be making her Broadway debut in "West Side Story." Also in the cast of 37 are Karen Olivo as Anita, Cody Green as Riff and George Akram as Bernardo. Olivo received a Tony nomination for her role in the musical "In the Heights." Green was the big winner on the Bravo television series "Step It Up and Dance." And the Venezuela-born Akram has appeared in the Spanish stage hit "Visa Para Un Sueno." Laurents, who wrote the book will direct the show, which is loosely based on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet." Joey McKneely will restage Jerome Robbins' original choreography. The musical will play an out-of-town engagement Dec. 15-Jan. 17 at Washington's National Theatre, which is where the original had its world premiere in 1957. It begins previews in New York Feb. 23.
