A conversation delving into the complex themes of mental health, social isolation, grief, and the struggle for connection and belonging as depicted in the Fulton’s Groff Studio Series production of Dear Evan Hansen (April 24 – May 17, 2026.) The winner of six Tony Awards including Best Musical and Best Book, Dear Evan Hansen offers a deeply personal and  profoundly contemporary look at life and the way we choose to live it.

For the past 173 years, the Fulton Theatre has served as our community’s meeting place and home for the performing arts. As such, the Fulton looks to engage as broad an audience as possible (currently totaling more than 170,000 individuals annually) through a spectrum of cultural programs and performances designed to entertain, educate, and enrich. It is in keeping with this mission that our historic theatre is proud to present the 2025/26 Fulton Speaker Series. Fulton Speaker Series will see professional theatre artists and community stakeholders participating in interactive, arts-centric conversations that will allow participants to tell their stories, exchange thoughts and ideas, examine their perspectives, and broaden their worldview.
