Description
Jason Robert Brown, the creator of Parade and Songs for a New World, has written a distinctive new Off-Broadway musical. The Last Five Years tells the story of a failed marriage of 20-somethings: he a successful novelist, she a struggling actress. Her story is told in reverse, his conventionally moving forward. They meet in the middle at the point of their wedding. Brown’s strong writing has found a solid following among musical theatre fans. Our songbook features piano/vocal arrangements of 12 songs: Goodbye Until Tomorrow/I Could Never Rescue You I Can Do Better Than That If I Didn’t Believe in You Moving Too Fast The Next Ten Minutes Nobody Needs to Know A Part of That The Schmuel Song Shiksa Goddess Still Hurting A Summer in Ohio When You Come Home to Me. Short, bittersweet and nearly perfect, Brown has come up with a winning combination of music and book. – Variety
