OHMYGOD HEY! It’s MickeyJoTheatre!

Last night I headed to Nottingham Playhouse to see the brand new, non-replica production of the Tony and Olivier award-winning musical, DEAR EVAN HANSEN.

This new production of the show which originally starred Ben Platt and was subsequently adapted for film, has returned to UK stages after a successful West End run at the Noel Coward Theatre starring Sam Tutty. Ryan Kopel (Newsies) stars in the new production.

Check out this full video review for a comprehensive guide to all of the creative changes in this production including new costumes, a different set design and even an added ensemble – as well as my thoughts on how effectively these choices serve the show!
