Now, the fugue from "Cool" in West Side Story, I would have to check
it again, but I think I remember that it is actually 12 tone. I might
be wrong, or maybe it just isn't strict, but I seem to have a
memory...

I'm not sure about that, but there *is* a 12-pitch theme (yes, I've
seen the score) at the beginning of "Quiet" from *Candide*. To get the
full set you have to start on the second note of the song. It is
presented in full three times, and also provides the wavering
minor-second motif that dominates the whole song.
