A new book from Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, the award-winning songwriters of the hit Broadway show Dear Evan Hansen.
When Benj Pasek and Justin Paul set out to write a pivotal song for Dear Evan Hansen, a musical they had been working on for years, they knew it had to be big and emotional and genuine. So they tapped into their main character's loneliness and allowed him to sing his way out of it. The result was "You Will Be Found," a song that sets in motion a moment that goes viral in the world of the show and in turn helps Evan find connection.
And then something happened in the world outside the show: Fans loved the song. It connected. It went viral. People who had never even seen Dear Evan Hansen found the song, and found comfort in its message of hope.
This beautifully illustrated edition of the "You Will Be Found" lyrics is for them, and for anyone on the edge of a new chapter in life. It serves as a reminder to anyone who feels lost or uncertain that, as the song says, you are not alone.
The digital, Blu-rayTM and DVD releases will include over an hour of brand-new bonus content including an in-depth look at the music of the film, one-of-a-kind mini documentaries with cast, Ben Platt’s personal reflection on his character, and a never-before-seen making of featurette with cast and crew.
The film adaption of Dear Evan Hansen is in theaters today. The soundtrack features Ben Platt, Kaitlyn Never, Julianne Moore, Danny Pino, Colton Ryan, Amandla Stenberg, and Nik Dodani. Additional bonus tracks feature SZA, Sam Smith, Carrie Underwood, Dan + Shay, Summer Walker, Finneas, and Tori Kelly.
