Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren to Lead Broadway Revival of ‘The Last Five Years’

Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren are set to captivate Broadway audiences in the revival of the musical “The Last Five Years.” Jonas, known for his multifaceted career in music and acting, will play Jamie Wellerstein, a budding novelist. Opposite him, the Tony Award-winning Warren stars as actress Cathy Hiatt, in a unique narrative exploring their relationship.

Created by Jason Robert Brown, “The Last Five Years” is celebrated for its innovative storytelling. Jamie’s story unfolds chronologically from the beginning to the end of the relationship, while Cathy’s perspective starts at the end and moves backward. This narrative structure offers a deep exploration of love and loss, making it a cherished piece in contemporary musical theater.

Jonas, who rose to fame with the Jonas Brothers before transitioning to a successful solo career and acting, brings depth and relatability to Jamie. His previous Broadway roles in “Les Misérables” and “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” showcase his versatility and stage presence.

Warren, acclaimed for her powerful performances in “Tina: The Tina Turner Musical” and “Shuffle Along,” promises an emotionally charged portrayal of Cathy. Her ability to convey complex emotions through song is expected to deeply resonate with audiences.

Directed by Brown himself, this revival aims to capture the raw emotion and intricate dynamics of modern relationships. The combination of Jonas’s and Warren’s star power and talent is set to make this production a highlight of the Broadway season. Fans eagerly anticipate their on-stage chemistry and the poignant storytelling that “The Last Five Years” uniquely offers.
