Performance: Dear Evan Hansen

Evan Hansen is a painfully anxious high school senior who would rather be invisible than risk being noticed. When a letter he wrote to himself as a therapy exercise ends up in the hands of Connor Murphy, a troubled classmate who dies by suicide days later, Connor’s grieving family mistakes it for proof that the two boys were secret best friends. Desperate to ease their pain and to finally belong somewhere, Evan goes along with the misunderstanding. One small lie becomes a viral movement, a new family, and a first love, until the truth threatens to take everything away. Funny, heartbreaking, and deeply human, Dear Evan Hansen is a contemporary pop-rock musical about connection, grief, honesty, and the universal need to be seen and to be found.
