BREAKDOWN

THE LAST FIVE YEARS

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.
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.

SEEKING:

CATHERINE HIATT: Female-presenting, Age 25–35, Mezzo-soprano. An ambitious, fresh-faced young woman at the start of a relationship. Over time, she becomes stunned by betrayal and grapples with a divorce she’s only beginning to understand. Vulnerable, funny, and deeply heartfelt.

JAMIE WELLERSTEIN: Male-presenting, Age 25–35, Tenor. A charming, ambitious writer with a dazzling career on the rise. Lovable and magnetic, but blinded by success and ego, making choices that ultimately sabotage his own happiness.
