Engagement Events

Pre-Show Talk with Children and Family Counselors

April 1 and 2, 6:30–7:15 p.m.

Woodburn Hall Room 121

 

Counselors from Centerstone will lead a conversation surrounding the mental health themes found in Dear Evan Hansen. They will discuss how for current high schoolers, there is importance in connection, finding your place, and the impact of social media as a tool for connection but also a source for potential harm, misinformation, and comparison.

 

This is a free public event and will take place prior to both performances.

 

Dear Evan Hansen: A Letter to My Future Self

April 1 and 2, 6:30–7:30 p.m.

IU Auditorium Lobby

 

Aligned with the themes of the production, we partnered with the Eskenazi Museum of Art to host a letter-writing activity, inviting IU students to reflect on their present selves and envision their future. Through creative exploration and therapeutic guidance, they crafted personal letters to their future selves, fostering growth and self-compassion. 

 

This free event for ticket holders will take place in IU Auditorium's main lobby area prior to the show starting.
