State Theatre New Jersey will present the North American tour of the Tony® and Grammy®-winning Best Musical sensation, Dear Evan Hansen for five performances on Friday, March 28 at 8pm; Saturday, March 29 at 2pm and 8pm; and Sunday, March 30 at 2pm and 6:30pm. Tickets range from $50-$110.

Dear Evan Hansen is the first musical to take a groundbreaking look—from the point of view of both the parents and young people—at our complex, interconnected, and social media-filled lives.
Evan Hansen is a high school student who always feels like he’s on the outside looking in. Evan finally gets what so many of us are searching for—the chance to finally fit in. What follows is a poignant, funny, and powerful musical about how even though it can be hard, we can find each other—and ourselves—along the way.
Including some of the most iconic musical theatre songs from the last decade, including “You Will Be Found,” “Waving Through A Window,” and “For Forever,” Dear Evan Hansen features an uplifting score by the Emmy ®, Tony ®, Grammy®, and Oscar®-winning team behind The Greatest Showman, La La Land, and Only Murders in the Building, Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, and a book by Tony® Award-winner Steven Levenson.
Dear Evan Hansen features scenic design by David Korins, projection design by Peter Nigrini, costume design by Emily Rebholz, lighting design by Japhy Weideman, and sound design by Nevin Steinberg. Music supervision, orchestrations and additional arrangements are by Alex Lacamoire. Ben Cohn is the Associate Music Supervisor. Vocal arrangements and additional arrangements are by Justin Paul. Direction restaging by Danny Sharron and Mark Myars. (Myars also restages choreography.) Original Broadway production directed by Michael Grief and choreographed by Danny Mefford.

Dear Evan Hansen was originally produced on Broadway, North American Tour, Toronto, and London by Stacey Mindich. The Broadway production opened at the Music Box Theatre to rave reviews on December 4, 2016, won six 2017 Tony® Awards and ran through September 18, 2022.
