A letter that was never meant to be seen

About the show
The Tony & Grammy Award-winning musical. With a book by Steven Levenson and a score by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (The Greatest Showman, La La Land), Dear Evan Hansen is a deeply personal and profoundly contemporary musical about life and the way we live it.
Seventeen-year-old Evan Hansen has always felt invisible. But when a tragedy shocks his community and thrusts him into the center of a rapidly evolving controversy, Evan is given the opportunity of a lifetime, to finally belong.
