MUSIC: Christy Moore Live From The National Concert Hall

THEATRE: The Last Five Years
The Odd Theatre Company will present their production of the award-winning musical The Last Five Years, a show widely regarded as one of the finest musicals of the 21st century, live from the stage of the Riverbank Arts Centre. An emotionally powerful and intimate tale of two New Yorkers in their twenties who fall in and out of love over half a decade, The Last Five Years follows the relationship of Cathy, a struggling actress, and Jamie, a rising novelist. The show’s unconventional structure sees Cathy’s story start at the end of their relationship, working backwards, while Jamie’s is told chronologically, from the beginning of their romance.
