The Last Five Years

AUGUST 14‭ ‬‮–‬‭ ‬SEPTEMBER 6‭, ‬2025

Book‭, ‬Music‭, ‬and Lyrics by Jason Robert Brown‭ | ‬Regional Premiere

We round out the Summer with a contemporary classic‭, ‬one of the most beloved musicals about a tumultuous heartbreak to ever have‭ ‬been written‭. ‬Fresh off its first-ever Broadway Run‭, ‬starring Adrienne Warren and Nick Jonas‭, ‬Circle Theatre will be the first‭ ‬to bring‭ ‬The Last Five Years ‬by Jason Robert Brown back to the area‭! ‬

The Last Five Years‭ ‬captivates its audiences with its innovative storytelling and beloved score‭. ‬A powerful piece that speaks to the universal experience of love and loss‭, ‬this critically acclaimed musical delves into the five-year romance between Cathy and Jamie‭, ‬two aspiring artists‭, ‬through a unique narrative structure‭: ‬Cathy’s story unfolds from the end of their relationship moving backward‭, ‬while Jamie’s perspective moves forward from the start‭.‬

Memorable melodies soar throughout the piece‭, ‬which leave audiences considering all that can go wrong when two people collide‭ – ‬and all that could have gone right‭, ‬had they ever truly seen one another‭. ‬
