I know how you feel. The last time I saw Dear Evan Hansen was back in Nov 2017 just for that same reason.
BTW, I didn't realize how much a comedy this musical was until I saw the concert. In the late 90s I recall listening to the CD cast album but didn't really catch the comedic elements as much (hence why it's always better to go see live theater!) I know i
