Review: THE LAST FIVE YEARS (Opening Night) at Civic Center Little Theatre
Now on stage at the Civic Center Little Theatre, featuring Oklahoma's own Erin Elizabeth Clemons!
Southern Plains Productions wraps up the 25-26 season with Jason Robert Brown's The Last Five Years. It takes some true storytellers to bring this show to life, and my friends.....this production right here does exactly that! Featuring Broadway alum and Oklahoma's own Erin Elizabeth Clemons as Cathy and Tristan McIntyre as Jamie, this story takes us on a journey starting in the end (Cathy) and beginning (Jaime) of time at the same moment. Cathy and Jamie only connect on the same wavelength of time when they were most in love and there for each other. Both Erin and Tristan captivated the audience living in each of those time fragments through song inviting us in to what emotions Cathy and Jamie were really feeling about life passing by, each other, and if happiness or success can really be attained for yourself if living in the shadow of a partner.
This beautiful production under the direction of Cameron King, The Last Five Years is a must see! It will make you laugh, cry, and most of all think about how we spend our time with the people around us. From the backing visuals of Erin and Tristan as Cathy and Jamie happily married to the phenominal storytelling on stage the power you both bring is absolute magic. You can really see the love that was put in this production.
Southern Plains Productions The Last Five Years runs from May 29 - June 6, 2026! Trust me, you don't want to miss it!
