Book by Steven Levenson; Music and Lyrics by Benj Pasek & Justin Paul
Directed by Dean Bryant
A Sydney Theatre Company and Michael Cassel Group production
The Tony Award-winning sensation has its Australian premiere
Sydney Theatre Company and Michael Cassel Group, the company that brought Hamilton and Harry Potter and the Cursed Child to our shores, join forces for the Australian premiere of this radiant Broadway musical sensation.
Dear Evan Hansen is the raw, moving and inspiring story of a socially anxious highschooler who is suddenly thrust into the spotlight when he inadvertently invents an important role for himself at the centre of a local tragedy.
Called a “breathtaking knockout of a musical” by The New York Times and the winner of six Tony Awards, including Best Book by writer Steven Levenson, Dear Evan Hansen features music from the Grammy and Academy Award-winning geniuses Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (La La Land, The Greatest Showman) and a story that journeys to the heart of the contemporary teenage condition with a tenderness and wit that will set your heart alight.
In a brand-new production helmed by one of Australia’s great interpreters of musical theatre, Dean Bryant (Fun Home, Hubris & Humiliation), Dear Evan Hansen is an empowering and uplifting experience for anyone who’s ever considered themselves on the “outside, always looking in”.
