Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown's acclaimed musical, The Last Five Years, returns to PQA Venues @Riddle's Court (venue 277) this Edinburgh Festival Fringe from 2-26 August (excl. 5, 12, 19) at 14:00, following last year's sell-out run. The very best of Edinburgh's musical theatre talent is involved, with Connor Burnett delighted to be returning to the role of Jamie, and Lori Davidson thrilled to be making her professional debut as Cathie.

Caitlin Tipping and Connor Burnett will play Cathy and Jamie respectively in a new production of Jason Robert Brown's musical, The Last Five Years, running at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe at PQA VENUES @Riddle's Court (venue 277) from 8 - 19 August at 14:00. The show, about two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love over the course of five years, is renowned for its unconventional structure - Cathy tells her story backwards while Jamie tells his one chronologically. The two characters meet once only, in the middle of the show.

'Only the brave die young' claims a lyric line in the title song of the over-hyped and under achieving musical 'Only The Brave' playing at this year's Edinburgh Fringe Festival. If you are a discerning fan of serious musical theatre then perhaps a more apt phrase would be 'only the brave should come'.
