The Last 5 Years

	Chapel off Chapel Thursday August 31 until Sunday September 17, 2006 Anyone who has ever wondered about whether men really are from Mars, or if women do come from Venus, will love Melbourne Music Theatre’s debut production – "The Last Five Years". As a new company, dedicated to professional productions of innovative contemporary musical theatre, Melbourne Music Theatre’s vision reflects its confidence in the imaginative power of the Musical at its best, and its conviction that tackling projects of quality always involves taking creative risks. It is fitting that "The Last Five Years" – one of the most brilliant and highly-acclaimed works in contemporary American theatre – marks the arrival of Melbourne Music Theatre as an adventurous young player on the local theatre scene. "The Last Five Years" is about passionate relationships and the differences between men and women. Read about Melbourne Music Theatre
