    Watched the movie first, but the Broadway Show was still very impactful. The story opens up the conversation for everyone about mental illness and depression. It's not a happily ever after type of show, but ultimately, it is quite uplifting. The theater is very small, hence there really aren't any bad seats. Cast is about a dozen actors and production value was just okay. However, none of it was necessary to enjoy this musical. In the end, the touching script and amazing music should be enough. Sorry to hear this show is leaving Broadway. Seeing many tearful audience, I'm sure Dear Evan Hansen made an impression on most people. If you missed the Broadway show in person, please do yourself a favor and watch the movie.

    Got orchestra seats during Broadway Week at a reasonable price, around $125+ tax, fees, etc. Wound up paying $139.75 per ticket. A fee to email the ticket to you! But ok, Broadway has been shut down for around 2 years and I am glad it is back and I am here to support it! Jordan Fisher as Evan, awesome! Beautiful voice. The Music Box Theater is kind of small and the seats are tight. They make you show your vaccination before you enter. I listen to the Dear Evan Hansen soundtrack on Spotify almost daily. Love "You Will Be Found". Thank you Broadway for the music! Please keep the lights on Broadway.

    First time back to seeing a Broadway show since the pandemic started and really enjoyed seeing Dear Evan Hansen. Had expected to see Jordan Fisher in the lead role when we purchased the tickets but found out that the role had recently been taken over by Zachary Noah Piser and he and Gabrielle Carrubba as Zoe and the rest of the cast were absolutely terrific. The theater was well staffed and the process of entering and getting to our seats went very smoothly. Very happy to be back to a Broadway show and great experience seeing Dear Evan Hansen. Highly recommend!

    Dear Evan Hansen is a contemporary Broadway show, as opposed to the classics that i typically think of when Boradway shows come up in my mind. I was in NYC for a quick work trip and decided to splurge a bit while on my trip, as I was staying at a hotel so close to the theatre. Mind you, the price was close to $200 for me..so it still wasn't anything cheaper even if it's not well known classics ones that people usually go for. I actually had no idea what the show was about..but heck..I was in NYC..so why not pick something very NYC to see, sit back and be surprised/entertained by it, right? Turned out it was a good idea. I actually never knew Broadway show could be so contemporary, too. I always thought of things like the Lion King and the likes when i think of Broadway...so a play re: something as contemporary as lives pertaining to millennial generations was a pleasant surprise to me. Overall, i enjoyed the show. I don't know if I could say I enjoyed it more than the classic Broadway shows though. Good performance..but i could also see why some people may not follow/like it as much, especially if you aren't as in tune to the current state of technology the millennials use these days. Overall, good show and a good entertainment for me. If you are seeing Broadway for the first time, however, I recommend going for /starting with the classic shows first..then perhaps try this show to broaden your experience of different types of Broadway shows out there.

    Absolutely amazing show! Took my son to see it tonight (he's home from school). We both thoroughly enjoyed it. Super talented cast and I don't think there was a bad seat in the house! We'd definitely see it again! It was that good! We sat in orchestra R, Row G- 7 rows back - and we could see everything perfectly down to the facial expressions! 10/10 and I highly recommend! A must see! Now one of my favorites!

    This show isn't like your typical broadway show, it's not a feel good laugh out loud kind of theme so don't come into this expecting that. Instead, it addresses real problems around mental health issues, which is what makes this show so powerful and moving. We sat in right orchestra row L and had a fantastic view. The theater is small so there really aren't that many bad seats. We could see every expression on the actors, which is really key to enjoying this show since there aren't too many props or set pieces. It's really focused on the acting. Overall loved the show but minus 1 star really just to warn those who don't come mentally prepared that it's not for everyone.

    Three words: DEAR EVAN HANSEN! This is one of the best shows to hit Broadway in a long time. We just saw it again last night, as it's Andrew Barth Feldman's final week in the lead role. And he was brilliant. At 17, he showed more depth and brilliance in his performance than actors I've seen do this for years. And if ever there was a show that was tailor made for ABF's Broadway debut, it is DEH. I love Ben Platt; and find Noah Galvin to be wonderful in most every role he does. But there was something inherently perfect in Andrew's interpretation of Evan, capturing every tick, twitch and nuance with perfection, and adding an emotional layer that is vital to making both the character and the show work. The music is, well ... Dear Evan Hansen. Once you hear it, you can't forget it, or even stop listening to it. Even after three years, it's still on heavy rotation at home, as the hubby plays a few songs as part of his winding down and getting going routine. This is a show that every person should see. It's that good.

    This show does what a lot can't do: incorporate many different themes and seamlessly connect them into a plotline. Take that and add in on-point acting, singing, writing, casting, and stage scenery, and you have one of the top musicals on Broadway right now. The themes, in case you need to know before deciding to watch it and with whom, are bullying, depression, self-esteem, lying, teenage love, drugs, sex, suicide, parenthood, and high school growing pains. There are some comical moments, but it's a heavy show where all these things are discussed. With that said, it's a moving musical with endearing characters and a powerful message. Don't watch if you're looking for dancing or fun, colorful songs. The music is sweet, but it's not unforgettable or varied.

    Been to the Music Box Theatre before but attended the Dear Evan Hansen Broadway Show tonight. It is so great to be back in NYC for a Broadway show! Surprisingly enough, the orchestra seats are very comfortable with enough leg room and you don't feel like you are a sardine sitting next to people. The sound is perfect! I was seated in orchestra D6 and for this show, the seat was perfect! I could see the entire stage and what was going on! Now, on with the show... Great acting and voices. A modern plot. The winner of the Grammy Award®, the Olivier Award, and six Tony Awards® including Best Musical. Dear Evan Hansen is about the modern day life of kids these days. The suicides and suicidal tendencies and struggles that they face. The awkwardness of being a kid in the modern world. To be liked, to be known, and the world of social media. Ben Levi Ross as Evan is brilliant. The emotion that transcends from his singing and acting is amazing. However, it wasn't enough to give me the "feels"! It was great to see Christiane Noll in such a different role from the first time I saw her in Jekyll & Hyde. I thought the show would give me all the feels and emotions but somehow it lacked that. It was good, but I'm not sure it deserved all the awards it received! At the end was the collection for Broadway Cares which is such an amazing organization to donate to! Jessica Phillips did a great job explaining what Broadway Cares does! Covid-19 Protocol - Mask at all times in theater. Must show vaccination card.

    Dear Evan Hansen will be on the top Broadway shows for me. I really enjoyed listening to the original Broadway cast album prior to watching the show. It's definitely more of a play with singing performances. You'll not see dancing for this show as some Yelpers pointed out their disappointments in their review. My recommendation is to listen to the album first and read the synopsis. Then, you can decide if you want to see this Broadway show or not. The stage effects was kinda cool and you'll see a bunch of different panels lighting up social media websites as well. My favorite songs for the show were: Waving Through A Window, You Will Be Found, and Sincerely Me. The singing performance was great live. The Music Box theatre is small. Our seats were in the mezzanine level row J (left side) and the view was still good. The actors were also so kind in signing autographs and taking photos with the fans after the show too. I had a fun and great time! Highly recommend show!!!

    At a week time for shows in New York I stumbled across the StubHub store on 39th and Broadway and whereas TKTS has last minute cheap tickets, Stubhub has last minute great tickets. For $150 I was able to get two Orchestra 5th 2 seats for this Tony Award winning show. The Music Box is a small theater so the seats were amazing! A unique show with no well known star, the show is full of new young actors, many making their Broadway debut. What I love is that the show was neither a revival or one carried by a star performer. The tenor of the show is a modern story that is very relevant in today's world. The music was unique and while the music is not something you leave the theater singing, it was very entertaining. Those who watch the show will have many opinions as well as interpretations. My companion and I both felt differently and even a heated discussion. I highly recommend the show for any parent raising a teenager whether you have a good relationship or not. I will neither recommend or not recommend, as everyone has a good show meant for them.

    This was such a special experience. My mom has been trying to go see this show since it came out but it didn't feel like a show I cared much for. We went on a whim and I couldn't speak more highly of the show. It was done so well, the actors all sounded so crisp and realistic, and I was so amazed at the intimacy created through the atmosphere they created in the theater. The ushers were so nice, the bartenders were very friendly, and I was just so impressed by how beautiful this show is.

    Saturday matinee notice
    Brian L.

    PSA #1: "On Wednesday & Saturday matinees, the role of Evan Hansen will be performed by Michael Lee Brown. Current Hello, Dolly! star Taylor Trensch will assume the role of Evan Hansen beginning February 6." (Telecharge) I preface my review with this because many patrons who purchased their tickets months in advance or who aren't in the loop on NYC theatre news may not be aware of the recurring casting substitution preceding Ben Platt's departure from the show in November 2017. This notice isn't posted publicly anywhere conspicuous in the box office, nor is it printed on slips of paper in playbills. If you have $400 tickets, you owe it to yourself to at least know who you're paying to see. PSA #2: Yes, this show is about high school students and adolescent suicide, so the show's message will probably resonate well with high-school-aged children. That being said, there are plenty of F-bombs (mostly from the Connor Murphy character) and more mature themes within the show that will be inappropriate or incomprehensible to anyone who isn't old enough to drive. This ain't no Disney musical, but you're the parent so it's ultimately up to you to decide what's age-appropriate. Coincidentally, this show touches on that issue as well: parenting. I had the great fortune of seeing Michael Lee Brown perform as Evan during last Saturday's matinee show. He wasn't the Evan Hansen from the soundtrack, but he's the only one I've ever seen live so I still enjoyed with his singing, sweating, and awkward shaky hand bits. Other reviewers far and wide have already shared about how moved they were by the show, but I just wasn't one of them. Don't get me wrong: it's still great theatre with genuine tears and anguish and important social themes. Maybe it was because I'd played the soundtrack to death, watched all the videos on YouTube, read all the interviews, and followed every member of the cast on Instagram: at the end of the show, I simply didn't experience any of the life-changing catharsis that other viewers did. My lotto ticket was for a seat on the edge of the first row of orchestra, which was partial view because I couldn't see the stage floor or stage right. This meant that during most of the musical numbers on a bed or a couch, at least one of the actors was facing away. I was totally fine with this because no single angle shows everything and I was able to see some of the cast and crew enter through curtain gaps in the wings. Also, Kristollyn Lloyd and Will Roland came freakishly close to my seat, so that was a plus. Ushers will let you borrow booster seats if you're seated in severely partial view seats. The boosters are only about 3 inches thick, so you'll only get a slight improvement to your line of sight, but mostly they provide additional cushioning for your butt. You can literally reach up and touch the side of the stage if you're sitting in the first row. (To give you an idea of how close the first row is to the action, see my photos.) The pit is suspended in a balcony above the stage, so there's nothing between the stage and the audience. The conductor/keyboardist does his thing remotely from another room and conducts the cast via two monitors suspended from the mezzanine. The orchestra sees the conductor through smaller versions of these monitors which are suspended from their music stands. The Music Box staff are among the nicer ones I've encountered in the Theater District: no grouchy power-tripping retirees here. (I bet it's because of all of the famous audience members: Milana Vaynstrub [a.k.a. AT&T girl] was in the audience the day I went.) Even the lady selling stuff for BCEFA very courteously and non-judgmentally directed me to the whereabouts of the restrooms after the show. The stage door is right outside the box office on 45th, but due to the show's popularity don't expect to see more than one actor appear after each show, if at all. It seems like one shows up to sign playbills, takes the hit for the rest of the cast, then retreats back inside to meet-and-greet with whichever celebrity VIP happened to show up that day. Members of the crew and the pit also exit through this door, so they're available for selfies as well though I'm guessing they're just happy to be able to dodge the limelight on their way to the subway. Before I conclude, I'd like to add that plenty of people behind me were coughing during the show, possibly due to the cold weather outside or the damp air inside. This theater doesn't supply free throat lozenges the way Carnegie Hall does, so please bring your own if you're prone to coughing during monologues or extended periods of dramatic silence. Thank you. Sincerely, me.

    Dear Evan Hansen!

Even though it's a non-traditional spin on the character, she infuses the role with her signature "hot girl" energy and is a total joy to watch on stage.

    I go to a ton of magic shows, and somehow Speakeasy Magick still completely blew me away. This…read moredidn't feel like the usual "magic show" experience at all. No cheesy jokes, no awkward crowd work, no fake game-show energy. Just really smart, insanely talented magicians doing impossible things right in front of you. What also stood out was that every single performer was great. Usually at shows like this there's at least one act you're waiting to end. Not here. Everyone was cool, confident, funny in a natural way, and honestly just seemed like people you'd want to hang out with afterward. The whole vibe of the night is awesome too. Everyone's dressed up, the room feels intimate, and it somehow manages to feel classy without being pretentious. It's one of the few nights out in NYC lately where I walked away genuinely impressed. Even if you already like magic, this is on another level.

    The show itself is actually quite fun which is exactly why I booked it for a group of friends…read morevisiting from out of town. Unfortunately, the way this was handled turned what should have been a great night into a pretty bitter experience. There are far better ways to spend $200 than having your plans canceled on you at the last minute. Here's what happened: * My 10 p.m. tickets were canceled with only about a week's notice for my group. * I was told that 7 p.m. tickets were available instead. * I immediately replied confirming I would take those tickets. * Two days later, I was told those 7 p.m. tickets were no longer available. * Somehow, it seems acceptable to cancel my booking but not others'. If you're going to cancel on customers, at least handle the rebooking process competently and fairly. This felt disorganized at best and careless at worst.
