Synopsis:
All his life, Evan Hansen has felt invisible. But when a tragic event shocks the 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. Both deeply personal and profoundly contemporary, Dear Evan Hansen is about life and the way we live it.
