Here’s who made up the cast of Dear Evan Hansen’s London production following its closure in the West End.

Dear Evan Hansen tells the story of socially awkward teenager Evan. In his last year of high school and with only one person he considers a friend, an assignment from his therapist leads to a misunderstanding that casts him in the centre of a tragedy.

With songs from The Greatest Showman composers Benj Pasek and Justin Paul and a book by Steven Levenson, Dear Evan Hansen proved a huge hit on Broadway. It opened in the West End in 2019.
