French version of Broadway musical ‘Cher Evan Hansen’ lights up Paris

One of the biggest Broadway shows of the past decade has made its way across the Atlantic, and is now on at the Théâtre de la Madeleine in Paris. “Dear Evan Hansen” follows a teenager named Evan Hansen, who suffers from severe social anxiety. Written by Pasek and Paul, the composers of “The Greatest Showman” and “La La Land”, the musical touches on themes of family drama, teen angst and the power of social media. FRANCE 24’s Genie Godula spoke to Kevin Barnachea, one of the stars of the show, in Entre Nous.
