Jason Robert Brown’s contemporary musical The Last Five Years
tells the emotionally powerful story of two twenty-something New
Yorkers who dive head first into a marriage fueled by the optimism that
comes with finding “the one.” But in a city where professional and
personal passions collide and only the strongest relationships survive,
navigating the waters of love and matrimony can sometimes prove too
much. Funny, honest and intimate, with an exuberantly romantic score, The Last Five Years takes a bold look at one young couple's hope that love endures the test of time.
The Last Five Years
premiered off-Broadway at the Minetta Lane Theatre in 2002 in a
production starring Norbert Leo Butz and Sherie Rene Scott, directed by
Daisy Prince. The musical received the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding
Music and Outstanding Lyrics, and was nominated for five additional
Drama Desk Awards, including Outstanding Musical. The Last Five Years was also nominated for the Outer Critics Circle Award and the Lortel Award for Outstanding Musical.
