Dear Evan Hansen
Book by Steven Levenson
Music and Lyrics by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul
Victoria Bussert, director
Matthew Webb, music director
In collaboration with Beck Center for the Arts
Nominated for nine Tony Awards ®, this musical proves you will be found. A powerful, deeply human musical about connection, identity, and the longing to belong. When Evan Hansen, a misunderstood high school student becomes caught in a web of lies born from good intentions, his story unexpectedly resonates with an entire community. Featuring a soaring, emotionally charged score, this musical explores the pressures of growing up in a hyperconnected world, and the courage it takes to be honest, even when it feels impossible.
“One of the most remarkable shows in musical theater history.”- The Washington Post
Presented in arrangement with Music Theatre International (MTI).
Estimated Run Time: 2.5 hours including one intermission
