The multi award-winning, off-Broadway musical, The Last Five Years, will make its debut on the local theatre stage on Friday 20 November.

Masquerade Theatre Company is proud to announce the staging of Jason Robert Brown’s multi award-winning, off-Broadway musical, The Last Five Years. Directed by anthony bezzina, the musical will star Rachel Fabri in the role of Cathy and Joseph Zammit as Jamie. 



Written by Tony Award-winning composer Jason Robert Brown, The Last Five Years details the story of a struggling actress who story is told backwards, while hotspot up-and-coming novelist, Jamie, tells his story chronologically. The unconventional structure of this two-person musical allows the two characters to meet only once throughout.

The Last Five Years premiered at Chicago’s Northlight Theatre in 2001, with multiple US and international productions taking place since then, including in Korea, Japan, the Philippines, Germany, Italy, Canada, Spain, South Africa, the UK and now Malta.



The local production, directed by anthony bezzina, who recently produced the hit One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, will also include a live band made up by six musicians led by Jonathan Ellul, and a set created by Italian stage designer Aldo Moretti. Cathy Lawlor is the show’s vocal coach.

Tickets to the show, which will take place at Blue Box, M Space, Msida, between 20-23 and again between 27-29 November, can be purchased from http://bluebox.azurewebsites.net/. Tickets for the opening weekend cost €18, and those for the following weekend cost between €20 and €25.
