Dear Evan Hansen

A modern musical that speaks to the digital age and the deep need for belonging takes center stage in the third production of Actors’ Playhouse’s landmark season. With its intimate storytelling and emotionally charged score, this celebrated work brings the complexities of adolescence and identity into sharp focus.

Dear Evan Hansen runs from February 11 to March 8, 2026, on select dates at Actors’ Playhouse at the Miracle Theatre. Featuring a book by Steven Levenson and music and lyrics by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the show is a recipient of both the Tony and Olivier Awards for Best Musical. At its heart is Evan Hansen, a high school senior grappling with anxiety and isolation, who becomes entangled in a lie that grows beyond his control following a classmate’s tragic death. As he navigates a newfound sense of visibility, Evan must confront what it means to be seen, to speak truth and to connect.

Part of the 2025–2026 Mainstage Season titled A Season of Truth and Illusions, this production offers a poignant reflection on mental health, authenticity and the impact of our choices. Single tickets go on sale August 1.
