THE LAST FIVE YEARS by Tony award winning composer/lyricist Jason Robert Brown is a musical deconstruction of a love affair and a marriage taking place over a five year period. Jamie Wellerstein is a young, talented up and coming novelist who falls in love with Cathy Hiatt, a struggling actress.

Their story is told almost entirely through songs using an intercutting time line device; all of Cathy's songs begin at the end of their marriage and move BACKWARDS in time to the beginning of their love affair while Jamie's songs start at the beginning of their affair and move forward to the end of their marriage. Its beautiful pop music score portrays an honest, heartbreaking, often funny, exploration of love and it's consequences on individual identity.

Kendrick received a Tony Award nominations for her performance in Broadway's High Society. Her role in "Up in the Air" earned her an Oscar nomination. Her other film credits include "Camp," "Pitch Perfect," "50/50," "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" and the "Twilight" series. She will soon be seen in the role of 'Cinderella' in Disney's INTO THE WOODS.

Jordan recently appeared in the out of town tryout of FINDING NEVERLAND, as well as on NBC's SMASH and starred on the Broadway stage in NEWSIES. He has also appeared in Broadway's Bonnie & Clyde in 2011, as well as ROCK OF AGES and West Side Story in 2009. He guest-starred on Law & Order: SVU in 2008 and appeared in the film Joyful Noise.
