Last Tapes Theatre Company are proud to bring Jason Robert Brown’s contemporary song cycle The Last Five Years to Auckland's Herald Theatre this March.
This thought-provoking show tells the story of Jamie, a promising young writer in New York, and Cathy, an actress waiting for her big break. The Last Five Years sees them share the story of their relationship - Jamie starting from the moment they first meet, and Cathy beginning her story at the end of their five years together. Their storytelling is powerfully honest, funny, and at times heartbreaking.
What the reviews have said:
“rich, and full, and devastatingly delicious.”

"Cherie Moore brings the character to life with delicate finesse… her doe-eyed, girl-next-door appeal made magical by the spine-tingling sound of her voice.”

“Tyran Parke… delivers a winning performance”
The New Zealand Herald
“A wonderfully intimate presentation with two talented singers and a lively three-piece band.”
The New Zealand Herald
“…astounding and astonishing”
Stage Whispers
“Very often a combination of talents that are joined to form a theatre company look much better on paper than in the reality of the production. In this instance this is definitely not the case.”
Stage Whispers
“…an impressive debut.”
