Reviews

  • "The continuous light and color changes of the set throughout the play helped the audience keep clear which time and emotion we were in, but as this last song came to a close, the scene was split between warm and cold colors, with Catherine and Jamie in opposite places in both time and emotion.

Synopsis
Temple Theatre partners with Rhinoleap Productions on 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, the woman, telling her story backwards while Jamie, the man, tells his story chronologically; the two characters only meet once, at their wedding in the middle of the show.
