The Last Five Years

The Last Five Years is an emotionally powerful and intimate musical about the five-year relationship of two New Yorkers, Cathy and Jamie, who fall in and out of love over the course of five years.

Written by Tony award-winner Jason Robert Brown (Parade, Songs For A New World, The Bridges of Madison County), The Last Five Years won Drama Desk awards for Best Music and Best Lyrics and gained a nomination for Outstanding Orchestrations.

Jason Robert Brown’s most personal musical, the semi-autobiographical piece tells Cathy and Jamie’s stories in antagonistic chronology, one character moving forward through their courtship, marriage and break-up while the other moving backward from the end.
