The Last Five Years 7/26/2018 7:30 PM - 8/5/2018

Thu, 05 Jul 2018 09:12:15 GMT

The Performer’s Warehouse is proud to present Tony Award winning composer Jason Robert Brown’s striking and intimate musical, The Last Five Years, as the first production in their Emerging Artists Series. The show features rising performers Jacob Valleroy and Jess Berzack. The Last Five Years follows the story of Jaime and Cathy, two young –twenties New Yorkers who leap into marriage while still in the “honeymoon” phase of their whirlwind romance. As they try desperately to cling together, professional ambitions begin to drive a wedge between them. Given separately from their own points of view, Cathy’s journey is sung from end to beginning and Jaime’s from beginning to end. An honest, funny, and passionate story, along with its breathtaking, romantic score, The Last Five Years holds nothing back in detailing the beauty of binding together in love – and the crushing heartbreak when it falls apart.
