Dear Evan Hansen: The Novel | Val Emmich, Steven Levenson, Benj Pasek, Justin Paul

so-so

I only read this because my youngest has been dying for me to watch the musical with him. I'm hoping some singing makes me like this more but after reading this I have no idea why they thought "Hey let's add some song and dance to this depressing train wreck!" #jazzhands I'm pretty sure that's how their musical concept meeting went. #23 #2019

megnews I have tickets to see this in June. Part of a subscription series. I wasn‘t too thrilled about storyline but I‘ve heard some good things. 5y

kricheal @megnews I've heard great things too, but after reading it I'm not sure why. If you see it before I do, let me know! 5y

ravenlee I think the play came first, and this is a novelization. Which might make the concept more weird rather than less. 5y

readinginthedark I mean, song and dance do make depressing things more bearable...like Rent. So maybe it works? 🤷‍♀️ 5y

kricheal @ravenlee That makes much more sense! 5y

kricheal @readinginthedark After I posted this I immediately thought well Rent is successful so.... 5y
