Albert Halls Bolton is set to transform its theatre space for the venue’s first in-house production since its renovation.
The musical The Last 5 Years will run from November 21 to 23, an intimate musical look at the relationship of New Yorkers Cathy and Jamie. The show's unconventional structure consists of Cathy telling her story backwards while Jamie tells his story chronologically; the two characters only meet once, at their wedding in the middle of the show.
For the first time in the theatre’s history, the production will be staged in-the-round to deliver "an immersive and intimate audience experience".
The musical stars Sam Lupton and Stephanie Clift who are reuniting for the production after previously playing opposite each other in the UK tour of Little Shop of Horrors.
