EVAN HANSEN: Played by Edward Drew

Evan spends his life trying not to take up too much space, while quietly wishing someone would notice him.

When he finally finds the connection and sense of belonging he's always longed for, he clings to it, even as the truth becomes harder to face.

Vulnerable, deeply lonely and constantly torn between doing what's right and holding on to the one thing he's always wanted.

It's easy to see why Evan Hansen has become one of the most celebrated roles in modern musical theatre. Honest, flawed and beautifully human, he's a character audiences don't just watch, they empathise with. His journey is one that stays with you long after the final curtain.

We can't wait for you to see Edward bring Evan's story to life.
