Sometimes you just get the urge to draw things that you liked in highschool
Dear Evan Hansen: Jared we’ve gotta write more emails before the Murphys start questioning me!!!!!
Be More Chill: Okay Jeremy now hit the second tower
real talk though I was a young teen who was very into dear evan hansen through all of high school and I had the basic "complex anti hero" view on evan but then the first time I heard a full audio bootleg with andrew barth feldman I had such a strong "jesus christ That's A Child 😬" reaction that it completely changed my take on the whole show after already having been a fan of it for three years. when evan is played by an actor who actually is (or at least passes for) a teenager it stops being a dark comedy/drama and becomes a two hour slow burn psychological horror about the very real dangers of neglect.
like not to go all "he's just a little guy and it's his birthday" but this is a wholly different show depending on whether you can really feel the age of the teen characters. especially in scenes with any of the parents, the dynamics and the miscommunications have this gravity and air of desperation that imo only fully comes out if you get that these are children trying to process some of the heaviest emotions out there and something really bad is going to happen if they can't get on the same page with their parents for support.
YOU’RE TELLING ME JARED ACTUALLY HAD A WAVING THROUGH A WINDOW REPRISE #2 IN THE ARENA STAGE VERSION OF DEAR EVAN HANSEN???
Thinking about the Dear Evan Hansen movie where, in order to make up for pretending to be friends with a dead kid, Evan Hansen decides to read Ready Player One
having a little watching acoustic loser geek whatever moment
Shout out to whoever's on Rolechat under the Marvel tag as Dear Evan Hansen characters in the year of our lord 2023, I love you and I see you.
Lets make out /j
The pipeline from Evan/Connor (or Jared honestly) shippers to Steve/Eddie shippers is something that needs to be studied
Thank you Pinterest
Gave them to the west end cast tonight but only two of them were stage dooring so I just asked the staff to bring the other two inside BUT I HAVE NO REGRET
@rapscalyn asked me to draw happy Connor for the art trade and,,, how can I resist that :’)
love the perspective afforded by this video of the final bway deh curtain call, especially as someone watching the will & kristolyn show whenever applicable
OK LETS TRY AGAIN, TUMBLR. inspired by those good pictures of ben n laura and kristolyn n mike. dear evan hansen is a story about wlw/mlm solidarity and best friends, and they say there’s not enough lgbt rep on bway smh!
