Photo Coverage: Broadway Celebrates Premiere of THE LAST FIVE YEARS Movie!
by Walter McBride - Feb 10, 2015
Tony-winning composer Jason Robert Brown's much-loved stage musical The Last Five Years gets the big screen treatment in The Last Five Years- a dynamic, achingly romantic new film from Oscar-nominated filmmaker Richard LaGravenese (The Fisher King) and starring Oscar nominee Anna Kendrick (Into the Woods, Pitch Perfect) and Tony nominee Jeremy Jordan (Newsies, 'Smash').
BroadwayWorld was on hand for the NYC premiere of the film, which was held at the show's original home, the Minetta Lane Theatre. Check out more photos from inside the special night below!
