Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren starring Jason Robert Brown The last five years is all set to make its Broadway debut.
“I have always believed that when the right time came, The last five years would come to Broadway. “Having Nick and Adrienne take on these roles is a songwriter's dream come true,” Jason said in a statement, according to PEOPLE.
This news came about 25 years after the 53-year-old wrote his first song for The last five years which chronicles how the relationship of a rising novelist, Jamie (Jonas), and a struggling actress, Cathy (Warren), came to an end.
The musical takes a unique approach where the novelist's story is told in chronological order from the moment they met, while the actress's is told backwards from the end of her marriage.
Historically, this musical first premiered at Chicago's Northlight Theater in 2001, and has since had several adaptations that have led it to become one of the industry favorites; songs like me I can do better than that, it still hurts, and The next ten minutes They have become staples of musical theaters since their success.
