Dear Evan Hansen

January 21–February 14, 2027

VENUE

Garden Theater

1187 North High Street Columbus, OH 43201

Description

Seventeen-year-old Evan Hansen has felt invisible his entire life. But when a tragedy shocks his 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. However, as his web of well-intentioned lies begins to unravel, Evan is forced to confront the fact that the price of belonging may be far steeper than he bargained for.

Featuring a Tony Award-winning book by Steven Levenson (Fosse/Verdon), and a score by Grammy®, Tony®, Emmy® and Academy Award® winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (The Greatest Showman, La La Land, Dogfight), Dear Evan Hansen quickly became a classic, with a message that has resonated with audiences around the world: “You Will Be Found.”

The show opened on Broadway in 2016 to rave reviews, and struck an emotional chord with critics and audiences alike. It went on to win six Tony Awards, including Best Musical. With anthems like “Waving Through A Window” this show reminds us all about the importance of community, and that we are not alone.
