CHARACTER BREAKDOWNS
Evan Hansen
Smart, sincere, and excruciatingly self-conscious, Evan prefers to hover in the background, a supporting player in his own life, too afraid to step forward into the spotlight and risk ridicule or, what might be worse, no one noticing him at all.
Gender: male
Vocal range top: C5
Vocal range bottom: G2
​
Heidi Hansen (This role is Cast, but in search of Understudy/Cover)
Evan’s mother. Overworked and stretched too thin, Heidi loves her son fiercely, but fears they have begun to grow apart. She is prepared to do anything to repair the damage.
Gender: female
Vocal range top: Eb5
Vocal range bottom: F3
​
Zoe Murphy
Sensitive and sophisticated, with a sharp sense of humor, Zoe could care less about the status games and popularity rites of high school. She feels a terrible ambivalence over her brother’s death.
Gender: female
Vocal range top: E5
Vocal range bottom: F3
​
Connor Murphy
An angry, disaffected loner, Connor has been a troubled kid for as long as anyone can remember, an enigma and a source of endless consternation to his long-suffering parents.
Gender: male
Vocal range top: G#4
Vocal range bottom: C3
​
Cynthia Murphy (This role is Cast, but in search of Understudy/Cover)
Connor and Zoe’s mother. To Evan, she seems to be the perfect mother, nurturing, available, and willing to talk about anything. To her own children, it’s a bit more complicated.
Gender: female
Vocal range top: E5
Vocal range bottom: F3
​
Larry Murphy (This role is Cast, but in search of Understudy/Cover)
Connor and Zoe’s father. Though often tense and taciturn, Larry shows a different face to the world, representing for Evan the dad he always wished for: strong, confident, and more than anything, reliable, someone to be counted on.
Gender: male
Vocal range top: G4
Vocal range bottom: Bb2
​
Jared Kleinman
Droll and sarcastic, Jared covers his own insecurities with a well-practiced swagger and a know-it-all arrogance.
Gender: male
Vocal range top: B4
Vocal range bottom: D3
​
Alana Beck
Earnest to a fault, prone to melodrama, Alana hides a deeper loneliness beneath an ever-present smile and an almost aggressive friendliness.
Gender: female
Vocal range top: E5
Vocal range bottom: F3
