Connor Murphy is a character in the musical Dear Evan Hansen. Not much is known about his life. He suffers from anxiety and depression, and perhaps substance abuse, as it's hinted that he took pills to kill himself. He's a reserved loner who acts cold and cruel towards others -- even his sister, Zoe. He is the catalyst for the plot, as his suicide sparks the confusion with Evan's letters. Despite his death, Connor reappears in "Sincerely, Me" as a figment of Evan's imagination, and a ghost when Evan doesn't know how to rectify the situation. Mike Faist originated the role on Broadway.
