Nick Jonas & Adrienne Warren Kick Off The Last Five Years—And Yes, His Brothers Showed Up Like Proud Soccer Moms

Buy Me A Coffee

Nick Jonas and Adrienne Warren have officially soft-launched their Broadway musical The Last Five Years! (Soft launch, because you gotta test the waters before going full “hard launch” in 2024.)

The 32-year-old former boy band heartthrob turned Broadway crooner and the 37-year-old Tony-winning queen of the stage started previews for the Jason Robert Brown musical on Tuesday night (March 18) at the Hudson Theatre—aka, the place where people go to cry over show tunes and overpriced concessions.

And because Nick is basically contractually obligated to never do anything alone, his brothers Joe and Kevin were there to cheer him on like embarrassing parents at a middle school talent show. Also in attendance? Nick’s wife, global superstar Priyanka Chopra, Kevin’s wife Danielle, and their ride-or-die drummer Jack Lawless. (At this point, he’s practically a Jonas brother by association.)

The Show: Just Two People, But Make It Dramatic
This is the first-ever Broadway run of The Last Five Years, and plot twist: It has exactly two cast members. That’s right—just Nick and Adrienne (plus their understudies, who are waiting in the wings like understudy superheroes). The show follows a five-year relationship told in the most confusingly artistic way possible. Cathy, played by Adrienne, tells her story backwards from heartbreak to first-date butterflies, while Jamie, played by Nick, tells his side forward from meet-cute to total relationship implosion. The only time they’re on stage together? Right smack in the middle, where their timelines awkwardly cross like two people trying to walk past each other in a narrow hallway.

Nick Already Serenaded America on The Tonight Show
If you missed Nick and Adrienne’s recent performance of The Next Ten Minutes on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, please pause and go watch it immediately. If nothing else, you’ll get to witness Nick trying very hard to prove he has leading man Broadway pipes while Jimmy Fallon claps like an excited golden retriever.

How to See It Before It’s Gone Faster Than a Jonas Brothers Hiatus
The show officially opens on April 6 for a strictly limited 14-week run—so if you blink, you might miss it. Tickets are available on the show’s website or on TodayTix, where Broadway fans can battle it out Hunger Games-style for affordable seats.

For the budget-conscious theatergoer, a limited number of golden ticket $49 seats will be available in person the day of each performance when the Hudson Theatre box office opens. If standing in line isn’t your thing, TodayTix is also offering digital rush tickets for $49 every morning at 9 AM. (That’s right, you can stress-refresh your app instead of fighting someone in person—progress!)

So if you want to see Nick Jonas belt his heart out while navigating the wreckage of a fictional relationship, now’s your chance. Just be warned: Joe and Kevin might be in the audience, aggressively clapping, crying, and possibly handing out homemade “Go Nick!” signs.
