What did our critic think of DEAR EVAN HANSEN at Morrison Center? What happens when a letter you intend for no one to see , gets seen. When a lie that shouldn't be told , gets told. This is essentially what happens in Dear Evan Hansen which came to the Morrison Center this past week. Winning Tony awards including Best Musical. Dear Evan Hansen focuses on being a voice for the voiceless and invisible. And telling a story unlike any other.

Individual tickets for the Detroit premiere of DEAR EVAN HANSEN will go on sale on July 8 at 10:00 a.m. A letter that was never meant to be seen, a lie that was never meant to be told, a life he never dreamed he could have.
