Dear Evan Hansen - 2019 Toronto History , Info & More


Royal Alexandra Theatre
260 King St W, Toronto, ON M5V 1H9 Toronto

A letter that was never meant to be seen, a lie that was never meant to be told, a life he never dreamed he could have. Evan Hansen is about to get the one thing he's always wanted: a chance to finally fit in.

Both deeply personal and profoundly contemporary, DEAR EVAN HANSEN is a new musical about life and the way we live it.

DEAR EVAN HANSEN has struck a remarkable chord with audiences and critics everywhere. The New York Times calls it "a gut-punching, breathtaking knockout of a musical." And NBC Nightly News calls this bold new musical "an anthem resonating on Broadway and beyond."
