One letter. One lie. A chance to belong—at a heartbreaking cost.
Evan Hansen is invisible, or at least he feels that way—until one small lie spirals into something bigger than he ever imagined. When a classmate's death sends shockwaves through his school, Evan finds himself at the center of a story that could give him everything he’s ever wanted: friends, acceptance, a sense of purpose. But how long can you keep up a lie when the truth demands to be heard?
