GREAT PRODUCTION

Have to start off by saying this production is a terrific version of this show. The only problem is the sound which has been an issue all season at PPAC. We’ve been subscribers for years but this year something has changed. Not sure if there is an in house sound engineer (which seems to be as it’s been an issue with every production this year) or if it’s the system that’s built in and all production companies have to use it. Whatever the reason, the sound has been so inconsistent for every show. Our seats are in the first half dozen rows on the aisle, so there should be no reason that we can’t hear the dialogue but it’s been terrible. Hopefully they can get it together or we probably won’t renew.

BEAUTIFUL AND MOVING

I was hooked when Ben opened his mouth I fell in love with him. I believed him I cried they must of this. During intermission people were crying all around me people were passing tissue around For real!! It was emotional and gut wrenching. I loved it The whole cast wax excellent and I liked the music It is worth seeing

AUTHENTIC AND HONEST. EVERYONE SHOULD SEE!

Matt Kemp, Fairport native, delivered a powerful, authentic, heart felt performance as Evan. We laughed, we cried and we held our breath. It is a comedy as much as a drama. Outstanding singers and songs. DEH is not a shallow musical.

THE SHOW IS A MASTERPIECE; CAST NOT SO MUCH

This was my second time seeing this show plus I have seen the movie twice. I saw the Broadway cast (Sadly not with Ben Platt but with almost all the other originals) in the 4th row center and it was a tearjerking masterpiece. This cast was mostly good, but the guy who plays Evan Hansen...well? Not so much.

CURRAN SF

First half good. Second half lacking follow through. Poor audio at times...could not understand actors. Wish there wouldnt be so much comedy on such a serious issue as suicide. Music was good though.

GOOD MUSIC, MESSAGE, MAJOR TECH ISSUES!

Saw the 2:00pm matineee yesterday 10/18/18. Show was PLAGUED by tech issues. We the audience didn't know but for the fact they stopped the show 4 times. At the top after Evan Hansen did his first monologue, stopped show 3-4 minutes into it. People thought it was part of the show, until the asked the actor to leave the stage! Right before end of 1st Act, took a 25 minute break due to tech issues, combined with the show starting almost half hour late. I felt bad for actors who were wonderful as was the music. As an adult, I felt the target audience was jr & sr high schoolers and parents. Still a good meaningful show, but had I not one discount tix I would not have paid full price for the tickets.

What we thought

emotional Remarkable INSPIRING

Get dressed, pack your tissues, and go see this show!

Dear Evan Hansen beautifully explores the search for love, dealing with grief, loneliness, and self-exploration while being surrounded by digital noise. We may have mastered worldwide connectivity but have we begun to conquer the power of communication?
