Skip it. 'Dear Evan Hansen' squanders its sensitive subject matter with manipulative storytelling and a protagonist you'll struggle to root for—the critics agree this one misses the mark. There are better dramas out there that handle grief and anxiety with actual nuance.
Plot
Evan Hansen, a high schooler with social anxiety, unintentionally gets caught up in a lie after the family of a classmate who committed suicide mistakes one of Hansen’s letters for their son’s suicide note.
Director: Stephen Chbosky
Cast: Ben Platt, Kaitlyn Dever, Amy Adams, Amandla Stenberg, Nik Dodani
