The national tour production of the Tony-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen kicked off last month and the tour just arrived in Los Angeles at the Ahmanson Theatre!
The musical won six Tony Awards last year, including Best Musical and Best Score for composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul.
The tour is being led by actor Ben Levi Ross, who played the role of Evan on Broadway. He also happens to be dating the show’s current Broadway lead, Taylor Trensch!
The cast for the first national tour of the Tony Award-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen has been announced and you can watch a preview of Ben Levi Ross as Evan right here!
Ben, who is a member of the Broadway company currently, will be joined in the production by Broadway veterans Jessica Phillips as Heidi Hansen, Christiane Noll as Cynthia Murphy, and Aaron Lazar as Larry Murphy.
Marrick Smith will play Connor, Maggie McKenna has been cast as Zoe, Jared Goldsmith will appropriately play Jared, and Phoebe Koyabe will play Alana.
The tour kicks off on September 25 in Denver and will travel to Los Angeles, Tempe, San Francisco, Costa Mesa, Las Vegas, Seattle, Des Moines, Chicago, and MANY more cities. Tickets for the first three cities are on sale now.
