Ein nie für die Öffentlichkeit bestimmter Brief lässt Evan Hansen als besten Freund seines toten Mitschülers Connor erscheinen. Dieses Missverständnis eröffnet dem Außenseiter Evan die Chance, endlich dazuzugehören. Plötzlich steht er im Zentrum der Aufmerksamkeit – sogar der von Connors attraktiver Schwester. Doch der Preis für die Lüge ist hoch: Sein Geheimnis kann jederzeit auffliegen. Und dann würde er nicht nur alles verlieren, sondern müsste sich seiner größten Herausforderung stellen: sich selbst.

Da den rodløse high school-elev Evan Hansen ved et tilfælde får fingrene i et brev, der aldrig skulle have nået hans vej, får han sit livs chance for endelig at høre til. Det kræver bare, at han holder en skamfuld løgn ved lige. Familien Murphy må få alt i verden ikke opdage, at Evan ikke var bedste venner med den søn de på tragisk vis mistede i en ulykke. Desperate for at lære deres gådefulde afdøde søn bedre at kende tager familien Evan ind som deres egen. Men som deres relation bliver dybere, begynder Evan at indse, at han måske har gang i noget helt forkert.
