Winnipeg Jewish Theatre presents Dear Evan Hansen

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. As his web of well-intentioned lies begins to unravel, though, Evan is forced to confront the fact that the price of belonging may be far steeper than he bargained for.

Dear Evan Hansen is one of the defining musicals of the 21st century, created by today’s most celebrated Jewish theatre writers. It features a Tony Award-winning book by Steven Levenson, and a score by Grammy, Tony, Emmy and Academy Award winners Benj Pasek and Justin Paul (The Greatest Showman, La La Land, Dogfight, James and the Giant Peach).
