Penned by Jason Robert Brown, The Last Five Years is a semi-autobiographical one-act look at Brown's own failed marriage told through the story of Jamie Wellerstein and Catherine Hiatt's five-year relationship. The piece plays with the chronology of their tale, with Jamie beginning his story when they meet for the first time while Catherine's tale starts with the couple's divorce. Songs drive the differing storylines with Jamie and Catherine singing separately except in the middle for their their wedding ("The Next Ten Minutes").
