Dear Evan Hansen (17)

Music & Lyrics: Benj Pasek & Justin Paul // Book: Steven Levenson

Broadway | November, 2016 (Preview) | master: SunsetBlvd79 | VOB

Ben Platt (Evan Hansen), Rachel Bay Jones (Heidi Hansen), Laura Dreyfuss (Zoe Murphy), Jennifer Laura Thompson (Cynthia Murphy), Michael Park (Larry Murphy), Mike Faist (Connor Murphy), Will Roland (Jared Kleinman), Kristolyn Lloyd (Alana Beck)

Notes: Excellent HD capture of the Broadway transfer. In the long journey to Broadway, the show still lives up to all it's hype and greatness. The cast gives amazing performances and leaves it all on the stage.

Broadway | December, 2016 | master: SJ Bernly | VOB | ACT ONE ONLY

Ben Platt (Evan Hansen), Rachel Bay Jones (Heidi Hansen), Laura Dreyfuss (Zoe Murphy), Jennifer Laura Thompson (Cynthia Murphy), Michael Park (Larry Murphy), Mike Faist (Connor Murphy), Will Roland (Jared Kleinman), Kristolyn Lloyd (Alana Beck)

Notes: Act One only! A nice capture with no washout and just one quick dropout during the scene after Waving Through a Window. There is one head that blocks part of the front of the stage, but it’s worked around generally doesn’t do more than block the actors’ legs. It’s filmed in 16:9, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent.

Broadway | June 24, 2017 | master: SunsetBlvd79 | VOB

Ben Platt (Evan Hansen), Rachel Bay Jones (Heidi Hansen), Laura Dreyfuss (Zoe Murphy), Jennifer Laura Thompson (Cynthia Murphy), Michael Park (Larry Murphy), Mike Faist (Connor Murphy), Will Roland (Jared Kleinman), Olivia Puckett (u/s Alana Beck)

Notes: Excellent HD capture with no obstructions. This was shortly after Ben Platt's 2017 Tony win for Best Actor and Best Musical Award. The cast and show are still in wonderful shape, energy and speaks for itself.

Broadway | August 11, 2017 | master: SunsetBlvd79 | VOB

Notes: Excellent HD capture of Understudies going on for the three lead roles. Michael does a terrific job filling Evan's shoes, bringing his own interpretation and power.

Broadway | January 31, 2019 | master: NYCG8R | VOB

Andrew Barth Feldman (Evan Hansen), Lisa Brescia (Heidi Hansen), Mallory Bechtel (Zoe Murphy), Jennifer Laura Thompson (Cynthia Murphy), Michael Park (Larry Murphy), Alex Boniello (Connor Murphy), Sky Lakota-Lynch (Jared Kleinman), Phoenix Best (Alana Beck)

Notes: Due to a sick audience member, the last 2 minutes of Act One are from a performance a few weeks prior with Michael Lee Brown. This is the fixed version. This is also the last known video capture of Michael Park and Jennifer Laura Thompson in the role of Larry and Cynthia Murphy before they depart on August 4. The version with February, 2018 in the menu should not be shared.

Broadway | June, 2019 | master: StarCuffedJeans | mp4 (HD)

Notes: Beautiful HD capture of Roman in the titular role, with Gabrielle and Asa as Zoe and Larry respectively! Filmed from the left orchestra, this is a very Roman-centric capture, filmed with a mix of wides, mediums, and many closeups.

Roman Banks (u/s Evan Hansen), Lisa Brescia (Heidi Hansen), Gabrielle Carrubba (Zoe Murphy), Ann Sanders (t/r Cynthia Murphy), Ivan Hernandez (Larry Murphy), Alex Boniello (Connor Murphy), Sky Lakota-Lynch (Jared Kleinman), Samantha Williams (Alana Beck)

Notes: Roman Banks as Evan!

Michael Lee Brown (alt Evan Hansen), Lisa Brescia (Heidi Hansen), Gabrielle Carrubba (Zoe Murphy), Ann Sanders (t/r Cynthia Murphy), Ivan Hernandez (Larry Murphy), Roman Banks (u/s Connor Murphy), Sky Lakota-Lynch (Jared Kleinman), Samantha Williams (Alana Beck)

Notes: If this is your first time watching Dear Evan Hansen, or if you are just a casual fan this video may not make sense. The seat location for filming is not great and the video starts during “Waving Through a Window.” This video is very much focused on Michael Lee Brown/Roman Banks/Ann Sanders. While other people are speaking and singing you will get close ups of their acting choices. Never to be posted publicly on any social media site. Don't post screenshots on twitter. Gifs on tumblr are okay after the NFT date, but don't link anything to the actors.

Broadway | September 16, 2022 | master: Unknown | mp4 | PARTIAL RECORDING

Sam Primack (Evan Hansen), Jessica Phillips (Heidi Hansen), Talia Simone Robinson (Zoe Murphy), Ann Sanders (Cynthia Murphy), Manoel Felciano (Larry Murphy), Noah Kieserman (Connor Murphy), Gaten Matarazzo (Jared Kleinman), Ciara Alyse Harris (Alana Beck)

Notes: 5 clips that make up most of the show, posted to youtube and ripped in the highest quality. Camera wanders at times, but captures most of the action. Only scenes not included were half of the jared and evan scene after For Forever (cuts after "so what else did you completely fuck up?") to the end of the first chorus of Requiem, the argument scene before Good For You until the middle of the song after the fight with alana, and 5 seconds of the transition between For Forever (Reprise) and evan talking to alana.

Toronto | June 23, 2019 | master: BroadwayForForever | mp4 (HD) | HIGHLIGHTS

Robert Markus (Evan Hansen), Jessica Sherman (Heidi Hansen), Stephanie La Rochelle (Zoe Murphy), Claire Rankin (Cynthia Murphy), Evan Buliung (Larry Murphy), Sean Patrick Dolan (Connor Murphy), Alessandro Costantini (Jared Kleinman), Kaitlyn Santa Juana (u/s Alana Beck)

Notes: Filming this was a very last minute decision, so it's not that great quality. The picture is washed out and the camera often drifts from the action. There are a few decent shots but it's far from good. I had to leave after If I Could Tell Her to get to the Pride Parade. I have a huge place in my heart for this cast, Steph has been one of my favourite signers since Over The Rainbow so I just adored seeing her as Zoe. Robert flubs a line in For Forever, and says "cuz the sun burns bright" twice.

First US National Tour | September, 2022 | master: TheatreCouple14 | mp4 | GIFTED UPON REQUEST

Anthony Norman (Evan Hansen), Coleen Sexton (Heidi Hansen), Alaina Anderson (Zoe Murphy), Lili Thomas (Cynthia Murphy), John Hemphill (Larry Murphy), Nikhil Saboo (Connor Murphy), Pablo David Laucerica (Jared Kleinman), Michaela Lamas (Alana Beck)

Notes: Includes Video, audio (tracked by MozartWasCrazy and untracked), and program. Decent wide-shot phone boot from the mid-orchestra. This show has a lot of bright lights, so some of the scenes are washout out a bit, a few scenes are slanted, but still very watchable. Almost all action captured, except on the extreme right side of the video on very few scenes. Never to be sold. Gifting Encouraged

First US National Tour | December 8, 2019 | master: mynewfavoriteday | VOB

Matthew Edward Kemp (u/s Evan Hansen), Jessica Sherman (Heidi Hansen), Stephanie La Rochelle (Zoe Murphy), Claire Rankin (Cynthia Murphy), John Hemphill (Larry Murphy), Noah Kieserman (Connor Murphy), Alessandro Costantini (Jared Kleinman), Samantha Williams (Alana Beck)

Notes: Matthew Edward Kemp’s debut as Evan! Excellent HD capture of the second year cast of the National Tour and first known video of Samantha on tour. A perfect capture of the final performance in Dallas with minimal washout, obstructions, and no noticeable dropouts. There are only a few instances where the camera doesn't focus completely but the show is filmed just as a well as any fan would want it to be. Jessica cuts off one of Matthew's lines and Claire almost misses an entrance, but overall it was just a perfect performance with a perfect audience. It’s filmed in 16:9 from the far right mezzanine, with a mix of wides, mediums, and close-ups. The sound is excellent. Includes curtain call.
