Essay Topics
Dear Evan Hansen is a Broadway musical that was adapted into a novel. Unlike the musical, the novel includes passages written from Connor’s perspective. What do Connor’s sections add to the novel? How would the story change if they were not included?
Evan’s relationship with his parents deteriorates after their divorce and his father’s move to Colorado. How does his relationship with the Murphys mimic that of a real family? What does this say about family in general?
The novel asserts that everyone is going through something. Choose a supporting character (not Evan or Connor but Mrs. Murphy, Mr. Murphy, Zoe, Alana, Jared, etc.) and write about their inner struggle. What are they going through that one might not see from the outside?
