When a letter that was never meant to be seen by anyone draws high school senior Evan Hansen into a family's griefover the loss of their son, he is given the chance of a lifetime: to belong. He just has to stick to a lie he never meant to tell, that the notoriously troubled Connor Murphy was his secret best friend. Suddenly, Evan isn't invisible anymore- even to the girl of his dreams. And Connor Murphy's parents, with their beautiful home on the other side of town, have taken him in like he was their own, desperate to know more about their enigmatic son from his closest friend. As Evan gets pulled deeper into their swirl of anger, regret, and confusion, he knows that what he's doing can't be right, but if he's helping people, how wrong can it be? No longer tangled in his once-incapacitating anxiety, this new Evan has a purpose. And a website. He's confident. He's a viral phenomenon. Every day is amazing. Until everything is in danger of unraveling and he comes face to face with his greatest obstacle: himself.

The New York Times called it "a superb new musical with great art and humor." New York magazines lauded it as a "musical gem with the kind of surprising songs only found in the best musical theater." The Washington Post called it "musical storytelling of the highest caliber, a work whose captivatingly generous spirit is matched by its exemplary intelligence and fearless embrace of deep feeling." But Dear Evan Hansen isn't just a darling of the critics. The emotional masterpiece is resonating across generations, where at the heart of the show is a universal message about our desire to connect more deeply in a world dominated by impersonal digital interactions. The Dear Evan Hansen musical follows the story of Evan Hansen, an anxiety-ridden teenager who gets caught up in a line that he never meant to tell and, as a result, finally begins to feel like he fits in. The show deals with universal themes of family, alienation, bullying, mental health, addiction and belonging, while also starting a much-needed conversation about what it means to be growing up in America in the digital age. The book-produced by Melcher Media, the team behind Hamilton, Wicked, Rent, and many more-will tell you the story of the musical from its conception nearly a decade ago to the Broadway stage. From developing the idea to writing the show, composing, casting, and rehearsals, DEAR EVAN HANSEN will appeal to fans far and wide will offer them the opportunity to continuously revisit the show, and for those who haven't seen the musical, reading the book will make them feel like they have. Filled with interviews with the cast and crew, original behind-the-scenes photography, a deeper look into Evan's fictional world and the visual world of the show, unreleased lyrics, and of course the libretto, as well as reflections on the creators own formative memories from their adolescence as it relates to the show's themes, and important examinations of how we present ourselves online and mental health, DEAR EVAN HANSEN will be a beautifully produced, thoughtful, and uplifting book.

The iconic song from the hit Broadway show Dear Evan Hansen, soon to be a major motion picture, in a beautifully illustrated book with a foreword by the award-winning songwriters. When Benj Pasek and Justin Paul set out to write a pivotal song for Dear Evan Hansen, a musical they had been working on for years, they knew it had to be big and emotional and genuine. So they tapped into their main character's loneliness and allowed him to sing his way out of it. The result was "You Will Be Found," a song that sets in motion a moment that goes viral in the world of the show and in turn helps Evan find connection. And then something happened in the world outside the show: Fans loved the song. It connected. It went viral. People who had never even seen Dear Evan Hansen found the song, and found comfort in its message of hope. This beautifully illustrated edition of the "You Will Be Found" lyrics is for them, and for anyone on the edge of a new chapter in life. It serves as a reminder to anyone who feels lost or uncertain that, as the song says, you are not alone.

Älykäs, hauska ja traaginen romaani valheesta ja sen seurauksistaYksinkertainen valhe johtaa monimutkaisten totuuksien vyyhtiin hykerryttävässä tarinassa ajastamme, jolloin ollaan pakonomaisesti esillä ja toisaalta jäädään kipeästi syrjään. Kun Evan Hansenin kirje päätyy perheelle, joka suree kuollutta poikaansa, Evan saa elämänsä tilaisuuden: hänelle tarjoutuu mahdollisuus kuulua johonkin. Evanin on vain teeskenneltävä, että hän oli ongelmallisen Connor Murphyn salainen paras ystävä. Yhtäkkiä Evan ei ole enää näkymätön - edes unelmiensa tytölle. Connorin vanhemmat kutsuvat hänet elämäänsä kuullakseen lisää pojastaan. Mitä syvemmälle vanhempien tuskan syövereihin Evan uppoaa, hän tajuaa, ettei ole oikealla polulla, mutta jos hänen valheensa auttavat surevia omaisia, mitä haittaa niistä voi olla? Entinen Evan oli lamaantunut, uuden Evanin elämässä on tarkoitus. Jokainen päivä on mahtava! Kunnes kaikki valheet alkavat purkautua ja Evanin on kohdattava elämänsä isoin este: itsensä. Val Emmich on kirjailija, laulaja-lauluntekijä ja näyttelijä. Hänen toinen romaaninsa Dear Evan Hansen perustuu Broadway-menestysmusikaaliin, ja hän kirjoitti sen yhdessä tuotantoryhmän jäsenten Steven Levensonin, Benj Pasekin ja Justin Paulin kanssa.
