The Last Five Years

Producers Seaview, ATG Productions and The Season have announced that singer, songwriter and actor Nick Jonas and Tony Award winner Adrienne Warren will return to Broadway to star as “Jamie” and “Cathy” in the first-ever Broadway production of Tony Award winner Jason Robert Brown’s beloved THE LAST FIVE YEARS, directed by 2024 Tony Award nominee Whitney White. The show will open on Broadway in Spring 2025.

THE LAST FIVE YEARS follows two New Yorkers, rising author Jamie and aspiring actress Cathy, as they fall in and out of love over the course of five years.
