West Side Story movie | 'America' sitzprobe performance with Ariana DeBose

The cast of the award-winning West Side Story movie had a blast during their sitzprobe, performing along to the orchestra in a special and surprisingly slickly choreographed performance of "America"!

Rita is out here living her best life and I love her for that 😂❤️❤️

[broniboi]

Choosing a Latin conductor who made headwaves with Mambo with the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra was the best and wisest decision

This better be performed during the Oscar's Awards 🔥

I don’t know who decided to hire Dudamel to conduct this score but they’re a damn genius. This is the best Bernstein has ever sounded.

I dont know why but this just has such singing and dancing in your living room vibes

Señora Moreno is still killing it at nearly a century. She deserves it though.

[juliasturrus]

This is fantastic! Their enthousiasm and joy is palpable

[michellegomes]

Thank you Steven for reminding us how great musicals are done!

[layylavictoria]

Some people just ARE music... And so many of them in that room at that time.

I hope this video is part of the advertising before it hits streaming services. I have been waiting to rip it apart in a video hehe

[reluctantlysmol]

i love that the cast has a lot of strong theater preformers, i feel the energy and overall vibe is plainly not the same, in a good way

Ariana DeBose est extrêmement belle ! Je l'adore, tout simplement ! Et merci infiniment pour la vidéo
