In "West Side Story," Maria Nunez is a central character and the romantic lead. She is a young Puerto Rican woman who falls in love with Tony, a former member of the Jets gang. Maria's character embodies themes of love, hope, and the desire for a better life amidst the backdrop of gang rivalry and cultural tension in New York City. Her iconic song "I Feel Pretty" and her tragic story highlight the challenges faced by immigrants and the consequences of violence.
