The last five years - Jason Robert Brown

An emotionally powerful and intimate musical about 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
the woman
telling her story backwards while Jamie
the man
tells his story chronologically; the two characters meet only once
at their wedding in the middle of the show. Jason Robert Brown won Drama Desk Awards for the music and the lyrics after the Off-Broadway premiere in 2002 starring Norbert Leo Butz and Sherie Rene Scott. The show has since been produced at almost every major regional theater in the U.S.
and has been seen in Korea
Japan
the Philippines
Germany
Italy
Canada
Spain
and the UK.
