Michael Greif, Mike Faist, Rachel Bay Jones, and more recall the show's first reading.
The first time they sat down for a table read and opened the script, the Dear Evan Hansen team "knew right away that it was going to be something special." Many in that original group are now part of the company working together on the hit Broadway show. As the Tony Awards draw near, the cast and crew are looking back on their collective experience bringing this powerful story to life onstage. Hear what Rachel Bay Jones, Mike Faist, Steven Levenson, and more had to say about their journey on the morning after Tony nominations were announced.

@sitali1134 4 жыл бұрын

okay. i know no one is going to see this comment but i need to say this... Can we just admire how PERFECT Mike Faist is for playing Connor? Like, if you've read the book, you would know that Connor is aggressive, but its like, he doesn't think about it when he pushes someone or something. It's a split second decision. And he does feel bad after he does it. He has guilt. Just, if you haven't read the book yet. Please do it. It's the best book i've ever read. It made me burst into laughter, and then start SOBBING. But just look at how the ANGEL that is Mike Faist walks here: 1:46. It's so perfect. I don't think anyone can play Connor as well as mike did.

With Evans actor... does he purposefully push his head forward so it looks like his has bad posture? Since sometimes it looks like his posture is great then sometimes shit

@LadyCallow 5 жыл бұрын

Haydo Mo106 It’s a part of the acting as Evan, he pushes his head forward to look like he’s slouching and shy. But when the years went on, he developed that personality and his acting wasn’t really acting at all. He started to act and talk a lot like Evan
