Oil Lamp Theater is proud to announce “The Last Five Years,” written and composed by Jason Robert Brown, directed by Christina Ramirez, music directed by Amy Branahl and starring Lili Galluzzo and Abraham Deitz-Green is now extended through July 19, at Oil Lamp Theater, 1723 Glenview Road.
“The Last Five Years” debuted at Northlight Theatre in 2001 and returns to the North Shore after runs on Broadway, Off-Broadway, the West End and, most recently, a concert version at Radio City Music Hall with Tony, Grammy and Emmy Award winner Ben Platt and Golden Globe and NBR winner Rachel Zegler. Jason Robert Brown’s musical masterpiece “The Last Five Years” is a widely beloved show and the Drama Desk Award-winner for Outstanding Music and Outstanding Lyrics, taking audiences on the romantic rollercoaster of Jamie and Cathy as they fall in... and out of love over the last five years.
