Debatable- a character convinces themselves and others of events that aren’t true. The character knows they aren’t true, but the others don’t.

No. A character is revealed to have committed suicide, but this never occurs onstage. Supplemental material to the musical reveals this character overdosed. This character did not hang themselves.

Yes, but not onstage. In the first act and first half of the second act, a character wears an arm cast. The cast is removed later in the show. The character discusses how they broke their arm and what it felt like multiple times in song and monologue.
The injured character is in visible pain when their broken arm is grabbed by another character.

A character has a few very raw and emotional panic attacks onstage that are designed to make the audience uncomfortable and upset.

There is kissing but nothing visibly sexual. A character mentions a sexual interaction they had with a girl. A character sings about rubbing their nipples and moaning. A character accuses another character of “jerking off”.
