What is an example of foreshadowing in west side story?

One example of foreshadowing is when Tony sings, "'Everything's coming up roses". This line is repeated throughout the musical and becomes a symbol of Tony's optimism. However, it also has a more sinister meaning, as roses are often associated with death and tragedy. This dark undertone foreshadows the tragic events that will eventually occur.
