Dear Evan Hansen

A modern musical that resonates with the digital age and the universal search for belonging takes center stage in the third production of Actors’ Playhouse’s landmark season. Through intimate storytelling and a powerful score, this acclaimed work explores the complexities of adolescence, identity and mental health with emotional depth and honesty.

Dear Evan Hansen runs from February 11 to March 8, 2026, on select dates at Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre. With a book by Steven Levenson and music and lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the show has earned both Tony and Olivier Awards for Best Musical. At its center is Evan Hansen, a high school senior struggling with anxiety and isolation, who finds himself at the heart of a lie that spirals following a classmate’s tragic death. As Evan’s world shifts with unexpected visibility, he is forced to grapple with truth, connection and the consequences of his choices.

Part of the 2025–2026 Mainstage Season titled A Season of Truth and Illusions, this production offers a poignant reflection on authenticity in an increasingly disconnected world. Single tickets go on sale August 1.
