The New York Times called it "a superb new musical with great art
and humor." New York magazines lauded it as a "musical gem with the
kind of surprising songs only found in the best musical theater."
The Washington Post called it "musical storytelling of the highest
caliber, a work whose captivatingly generous spirit is matched by
its exemplary intelligence and fearless embrace of deep feeling."
But Dear Evan Hansen isn't just a darling of the critics. The
emotional masterpiece is resonating across generations, where at
the heart of the show is a universal message about our desire to
connect more deeply in a world dominated by impersonal digital
interactions. The Dear Evan Hansen musical follows the story of
Evan Hansen, an anxiety-ridden teenager who gets caught up in a
line that he never meant to tell and, as a result, finally begins
to feel like he fits in. The show deals with universal themes of
family, alienation, bullying, mental health, addiction and
belonging, while also starting a much-needed conversation about
what it means to be growing up in America in the digital age. The
book-produced by Melcher Media, the team behind Hamilton, Wicked,
Rent, and many more-will tell you the story of the musical from its
conception nearly a decade ago to the Broadway stage. From
developing the idea to writing the show, composing, casting, and
rehearsals, DEAR EVAN HANSEN will appeal to fans far and wide will
offer them the opportunity to continuously revisit the show, and
for those who haven't seen the musical, reading the book will make
them feel like they have. Filled with interviews with the cast and
crew, original behind-the-scenes photography, a deeper look into
Evan's fictional world and the visual world of the show, unreleased
lyrics, and of course the libretto, as well as reflections on the
creators own formative memories from their adolescence as it
relates to the show's themes, and important examinations of how we
present ourselves online and mental health, DEAR EVAN HANSEN will
be a beautifully produced, thoughtful, and uplifting book.
