THE LAST FIVE YEARS
by Jason Robert Brown
Directed by Ashley H. White+
ABOUT THE SHOW
An emotionally powerful and intimate musical, The Last Five Years chronicles the rise and fall of a relationship between two young New Yorkers, told in a uniquely compelling structure: Cathy’s story moves backward from the end of the marriage, while Jamie’s story moves forward from their first date. As their timelines intersect and diverge, the show captures the soaring joys and painful heartbreak of love, ambition, and the passage of time. With a deeply personal score that blends pop, rock, and classical influences, The Last Five Years is a moving, honest portrait of two people struggling to hold on to each other—and to themselves.
Music, Lyrics, and Book by Jason Robert Brown.
