Get ready theatre fans, because Dear Evan Hansen is finally coming to Manila — And yes, You Will Be Found in the audience.
After years of waiting (and countless “Waving Through a Window” covers), GMG Productions has announced the Tony and Grammy-winning musical will make its Philippine debut in September 2025 at The Theatre at Solaire, bringing its heart-wrenching story and soaring anthems to the stage.
Fans of Benj Pasek and Justin Paul’s heart-wrenching score (“Disappear,” “You Will Be Found”) can now experience the Manila run of the UK touring production live and in full theatrical glory.
“Filipino audiences have been asking for Dear Evan Hansen for years, and we’re beyond excited to finally bring it to Manila,” said Carlos Candal, CEO of GMG Productions. “The story, music, and message resonate deeply, and we can’t wait for Filipino fans to experience it live.”
The show follows Evan Hansen, a socially anxious high schooler who stumbles into a lie that spirals beyond his control. First staged in Washington, D.C., in 2015 before its Broadway debut in 2016, "Dear Evan Hansen" went on to win Best Musical at the 2017 Tony Awards, along with a Best Actor win for Ben Platt.
Tickets officially go on sale Apr. 15, 2025 via TicketWorld. If you want early access, UnionBank cardholders and GMG waitlist members can grab pre-sale tickets from Apr. 8 to 14, 2025 here.
