About Dear Evan Hansen, The Musical

Dear Evan Hansen is a musical theatre production at the Rialto Theatre in Madrid, adapted and directed by the Serrano brothers in what marks the show's Spanish-language debut. The production won six Tony Awards on Broadway, including Best Musical, and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album. Music and lyrics are by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the songwriting duo behind The Greatest Showman, and the score includes Waving Through a Window and You Will Be Found.

The story centres on Evan Hansen, a high school senior with social anxiety who becomes entangled in a lie after a private letter he wrote is mistaken for a note from a classmate who has died. As Evan is drawn into the grieving family's life, his fabricated connection spreads online, raising questions about identity, belonging, and the cost of being seen. The Serrano brothers' staging brings a close, intimate quality to a production that was built for large Broadway houses.

What to expect

Audiences follow Evan's story across two acts, with the Pasek and Paul score driving the emotional arc throughout. The production is performed in Spanish, adapted for a Madrid audience while retaining the structure and songs of the original Broadway version. You Will Be Found, the show's centrepiece ensemble number, lands in the first act and has become one of the most recognised songs in contemporary musical theatre. Tickets are available across a range of seating tiers at the Rialto, with performances scheduled across the run. Booking in advance is recommended, particularly for weekend performances.
