The course of true love never did run smooth
Tony-winning composer Jason Robert Brown (Parade, The Bridges of Madison County), delivers ballads of every shade in this emotionally powerful and intimate musical about two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love over the course of five years. The show's unconventional structure consists of Cathy telling her story backwards while Jamie tells his story chronologically. Named one of the 10 best shows of 2001 by TIME Magazine this brilliant musical, with a fantastic score that has become a modern classic. Captivating both audiences and critics earning it a Drama Desk Award (music and lyrics), a film adaptation and productions around the world.
“Jaw-dropping! A gem of a show from Jason Robert Brown.” – New York Magazine
