SUMMARY:Member Event: The Last Five Years
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by Riverlea Theatre and Arts Centre \n\nThis is the sensational musical by Jason Robert Brown that took Tik Tok by storm\, and saw hit songs like 'I'm Hurting'\, 'See I'm Smiling' and 'The Next Ten Minutes' featured in multiple arrangements\, recordings and videos.  The global love of this musical saw the movie released 10 years ago starring Anna Kendrick and Jeremy Jordan.  2025 sees it's predicted revival on Broadway   but you don't need to fly to New York or wait that long.  See it right here!\n\nThis modern musical ingeniously chronicles the five-year life of a marriage\, from meeting to break-up and from break-up to meeting. Emotionally powerful and intimate\, it tells the story of two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love over the course of five years.  The show's unconventional structure consists of Cathy telling her story backwards while Jamie tells his story chronologically - the two characters only meet once\, at their wedding in the middle of the show.\n\nThe Last Five Years draws on a significant number of genres\, from classical to rock to klezmer. It premiered at the Northlight Theatre in Skokie\, Illinois\, in 2001and reportedly sold more tickets in a single weekend than any other production at that theatre before.  The Last Five Years has been produced across hundreds of American cities\, in addition to Australia\, New Zealand\, Germany\, Netherlands\, Italy\, France and the Philippines. \n\n\n\n"It's instantly clear... that this poignant\, richly dramatic and piercingly honest two-character show is destined to be a hit." \n\n- The Chicago Sun-Times\n\n"Jaw-dropping!  A gem of a show from Jason Robert Brown."\n\n- New York Magazine\n\n \n\nHamilton Musical Theatre's production is directed by Kate and Mel Martin-Booker with vocal direction by Kirsty Skomski.\n\nWritten and Composed by\n\nJASON ROBERT BROWN\n\n \n\nOriginally Produced for the New York stage by\n\nArielle Tepper and Marty Bell\n\n \n\nOriginally Produced by Northlight Theatre\n\nChicago\, IL\n\nLicensed exclusively by Music Theatre International (Australasia).\n\nAll authorized performance materials are also supplied by Music Theatre International (Australasia).\n\nwww.mtishows.com.au\n\nThe videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited
