What is Dear Evan Hansen the Musical about?
The Dear Evan Hansen musical centres around high school teenager Evan, who struggles with social anxiety disorder every day. After a classmate commits suicide, he finds himself at the centre. He invents a friendship with the boy in a misguided attempt to comfort the grieving family, fabricating email chains as proof. When this spirals out of control, Evan becomes the face of a viral video about loneliness, and the importance of speaking out.
Now, caught in the lie, Evan must choose whether to live in the fantasy that he has accidentally created, or whether to come clean and face losing everything he’s always wanted.
