The Media Theatre's Artistic Director Jesse Cline recently announced the upcoming 2010-11 Broadway Series Season.

Jason Robert Brown's contemporary musical that chronicles the five year life of a marriage, "The Last Five Years" is an intensely personal look at a relationship on The Media Theatre stage February 9-27, 2011. A novelist and an actress each tell their version of the story, one from the beginning of the relationship and one from the end. The characters only interact directly with a wedding song as the two time-lines connect. The musical is based on Brown's own failed marriage.

From March 30-May 22, Pete Townshend's classic rock and roll brings "The Who's Tommy" to life. A young boy's journey from pain to triumph, the show contains several of the biggest hits of all time including "Pinball Wizard" and "See Me, Feel Me". The winner of the Tony Award for Best Score in
1993, the year the classic rock album finally made it to the Broadway stage as a fully produced musical.
