A deeply romantic Valentine’s Day does not require huge amounts of cash. A pair of fourth-ring seats for the New York City Ballet’s staging of West Side Story Suite is $40. The dancers (whose performance shoes are pictured here) will seem far away, but Jerome Robbins’s choreography and Leonard Bernstein’s heart-stopping score are undiminished (bring tissues, and binoculars). There are performances on February 9, 13, 15, and 20, but the 13th is Valentine’s Eve (20 Lincoln Center, nr. 62nd St.; 212-870-5570 or nycballet.com for tickets).
