What Did The Critics Think Of Dear Evan Hansen In Memphis?

Playing through to October 13

Dear Evan Hansen has officially opened in Memphis! The hit Broadway musical swung open its doors at the Orpheum Theater on Tuesday night, but what did the critics think?

Broadway World Memphis were full of praise for the production saying, "Dear Evan Hansen resonates in both the head and the heart". They continued with praise for the leading man Stephen Christopher Anthony, who stars as our titular character, saying, "The production is anchored by a tour de force performance by Mr. Anthony as Evan. He fully embodies the title character, hilariously awkward, and with the physical and vocal ticks to match."

What is Dear Evan Hansen about?

Dear Evan Hansen is a cautionary tale about how a lie can spread across a community long before the truth even has a look in. The eponymous Evan of the story is an anxiety-ridden high school misfit who is desperate for any form of recognition from his peers. So much so, that when his classmate Connor commits suicide after suffering depression, a mysterious suicide note appears in the weeks after, seemingly addressed to Evan.

Now infamous by association with the dead teen, Evan finally gains the spotlight that he craves. However, with a traumatized local community, not to mention his family, starts begging Evan for more clues about Connor's state of mind, Evan's world starts to unravel with frightening speed. With Connor's parents and sister Zoe (who just happens to be Evan's crush) finding solace in the note, it isn't long before the powers of social media start to question its validity, and Evan's own motives.

Dear Evan Hansen is now playing at the Orpheum Theater through to October 13.
