​
​Seventeen-year-old Evan Hansen has felt invisible his entire life. 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: the chance to be somebody else. As his web of well-intentioned lies begins to unravel, though, Evan is forced to confront the fact that the price of belonging may be far steeper than he bargained for.

This show is Rated PG-13 Dear Evan Hansen explores the need for connection in today’s fast-paced society and promotes the idea that everyone deserves to feel seen and valued. While the production contains humor, music, and uplifting themes of belonging and family, its exploration of sensitive issues may not be suitable for all audiences. As Evan struggles with the consequences of becoming entangled in a lie about the circumstances of a troubled classmate’s death, he – and those around him – grapple with themes of loneliness, connection, mental health, depression, addiction, suicide, family dysfunction, and the potentially dangerous impact of social media.
