Due to an overwhelming response from Filipino audiences, GMG Productions has officially announced the final extension of the Manila run of the critically acclaimed, Tony Award-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen. The production will now run from September 4 to October 5, 2025, at The Theatre at Solaire.
Carlos Candal, CEO of GMG Productions, stated, “Bringing Dear Evan Hansen to Manila has been a long-awaited moment, and the response has been everything we hoped for and more. We’re happy to announce this final extension so even more audiences can experience the impact of this production.”

Dear Evan Hansen follows Evan, a high school student struggling with anxiety and a deep desire to belong. When a misunderstanding grows beyond his control, he’s faced with a life-altering choice: tell the truth and risk losing everything, or hold on to a lie that offers the connection he’s always wanted. As the narrative unfolds, Evan confronts the challenges of truth, connection, and self-acceptance in an often isolating world.
This UK touring production is produced by ATG Productions, Gavin Kalin Productions, and Nottingham Playhouse. The musical features a score by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul—the Emmy, Grammy, Tony, and Oscar-winning duo—alongside a book by Steven Levenson. Dear Evan Hansen has received widespread acclaim, winning four Tony Awards including Best Musical, the Olivier Award for Best New Musical, and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album.
Director Adam Penford shared, “Dear Evan Hansen has thrilled audiences on both sides of the Atlantic since it first premiered in 2016. Evan’s powerful story grips and moves people, told through a captivating script and musical score. This exciting UK and International tour production offers the opportunity to reexamine some of its contemporary themes and present this brand-new version to more people.”
The newly extended and final performance dates for Dear Evan Hansen in Manila are now available exclusively via TicketWorld. The show opens on September 4 and must close on October 5. The Manila season is presented by GMG Productions.
