Got plans this weekend?

Spend the evening at All About Theatre's presentation of Dear Evan Hansen in Santa Cruz this Thursday 8/27 through Saturday 8/29/26

Dear Evan Hansen is a Tony-winning-coming-of-age musical about a lonely high school student with social anxiety. Evan fabricates a friendship with a deceased classmate to gain social acceptance. The lie spirals, forcing Evan to confront the consequences of his actions.

It is a powerful piece exploring mental health, grief, the impact of social media, loneliness, and the struggle for connection.
