Next week we are performing for the 1st Annual Oregon Musical Theater Festival in southern Oregon. We are very excited to be producing the show "The Last Five Years" by Jason Robert Brown. Here is the press release for the show:
Rhiannon Kruse and Jeff Coleron star in this emotionally powerful and intimate contemporary 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 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. The Last Five Years is made up mostly of solo turns, with beautiful music and alternately humorous and heartfelt lyrics. Jason Robert Brown won Drama Desk Awards for the music and the lyrics after the show premiered in 2002 . The show has since been produced at almost every major regional theater in the US, and has been seen in Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Germany, Italy, Canada, England and Spain.
Performance dates are July 25, 26, 27 and August 1, 2, 3, 4. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit: www.oregonmtf.com
