No upcoming dates scheduled.
Covey Theater is proud to bring the first non-professional production of the Broadway smash hit ‘Dear Evan Hansen’ to CNY audiences! Winner of 6 Tony awards, including Best Musical and Best Score, the title character’s journey ask you to “Lift your head and look around, you will be found.”
July 31-August 9 at the Everson Museum’s Hosmer Auditorium
401 Harrison St., Syracuse For tickets visit CoveyTheater.com Synopsis: “‘Dear Evan Hansen’ tells the story of a young man with social anxiety disorder who so yearns to make a connection with his peers that he fabricates a relationship with a deceased student to become closer to the boy’s family. When a classmate commits suicide, shy Evan Hansen finds himself at the center of the tragedy and turmoil. In a misguided attempt to comfort the boy’s grieving family, Evan pretends that he was actually good friends with their son. He invents a fabricated email account to “prove” their friendship, and when a fake suicide note makes its way online, Evan finds himself the unintended face of a viral video about loneliness and friendship. As his social currency skyrockets, Evan is drawn deeper and deeper into the lie. His relationship with his actual mother wanes in comparison to that of his “shiny new family.” He finally lands the girl of his dreams, and most importantly–he’s no longer invisible. Eventually, Evan is forced to make a decision: Will he give himself over to the fantasy he’s created, or will he bite the bullet and risk losing everything he’s ever wanted? With a fast-paced score from songwriting duo Pasek and Paul, (not to mention a few Tony awards), ‘Dear Evan Hansen’ has become an instant hit among theatergoers everywhere.” –StageAgent.com Starring: Christian Almeida as Evan Hansen, Dani Ryan as Heidi Hansen, Maria Podbelski as Cynthia Murphy, Adam Fumarola as Larry Murphy, Zachary C.
