<p>"The Last Five Years" is a musical that chronicles the five-year relationship of Jamie, a rising novelist, and Cathy, a struggling actress, told through alternating timelines—her story moving backward, his forward. The song "I'm Still Hurting," sung by Cathy in the original, captures her raw grief after their marriage ends. As a gender-bender performance, I’d sing it as a male character, shifting pronouns (e.g., "he" to "she") to reflect Cathy's perspective, preserving the song’s emotional weight while exploring her side of the heartbreak.</p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://mediaproxy.tvtropes.org/width/1200/https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tl5yr.jpg" alt="The Last Five Years (Theatre) - TV Tropes"></p><p><br></p><p><img src="https://singsnap-cdn.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/message-board/threads/U9VU/b011e31775_C2RV_media.jpg?w=700"></p><p><br></p>
