Monson – Greene Room Productions presents, “The Last Five Years”, a wildly funny and crushingly sad musical written and composed by Jason Robert Brown. This modern Broadway pop musical has a jazzy flair focusing on the lives of a couple as they wind their way through the ups and downs of their relationship. This “relationship carousel” is presented “in-the-round” to bring this intimate show closer to the audience. The lead female character, Cathy Hyatt (played by Erin Greene), remembers the last five years, starting in the present and reflects back to the beginning her relationship with Jamie. The lead male character, Jamie Wellerstein (played by Dave Wallace) starts from the beginning of his relationship with Cathy and works his way to the end, in the present. The audience will take away a great deal of food for thought as they can see both sides of a story and the importance of communication, honesty and perceptions in a relationship.

The Last Five Years will be performed at Memorial Hall, 198 Main Street in Monson at the following times: February 22-24, 29, March 1-2 & 7-9 Saturday & Sunday at 8 PM and Sundays 2PM. Ticket prices range from $12 - $15. Group rates are available. For more information call 413 668-7284, mail GRP, P.O. Box 565, Monson, MA 01057 or http://www.greeneroomproductions.com/
