On Feb. 25, Conan Gray brought his “Wishbone World Tour” to Boston, captivating a sold-out audience with his musical tales of lost love, heartbreak, and endless longing. Divided into four acts — each with its own title and setlist — the concert unfolded as if it were a play, recounting fleeting moments of Gray’s life.

As the lights of TD Garden dimmed, the black screen displaying the name of the first act of Gray’s show — “a wishbone never breaks even” — was replaced with a scene of a sunny farm complete with cornfields, rolling hills, and a red barn in the distance. The cheery landscape framed Gray’s band as they appeared dressed head to toe in sailor costumes, a not-so-subtle homage to the cover of the “Wishbone” album.

As the opening chords to “My World” played, Gray rode out on a bicycle, clad in a matching sailor outfit. He danced and skipped across the stage while singing, accompanied by the roar of the sold-out audience. Keeping up the lively tempo, Gray launched into “Never Ending Song,” complete with ’80s-inspired dance moves to match the inspiration behind his third album, “Found Heaven.”

As Gray performed “Care” and “Wish You Were Sober,” his lack of backup dancers became increasingly apparent from the dichotomy of the largely empty stage with Gray’s small stature. Notably, his performances for his previous album, “Found Heaven,” incorporated a significant amount of choreography. This shift perhaps represents Gray’s movement back into a more emotional and personal era of his music, symbolized by his solo presence on the stage.

As Gray changed into a pair of simple blue pajamas and the screen behind him displayed the words “i got the short end of the stick,” commencing the second act of his show, the change in the crowd’s mood was palpable. While this section of the show contained some of Gray’s most melancholic ballads, the crowd became noticeably louder, screaming their own heartbreaks along with the melodies.

While belting devastating sad lyrics like “Oh, I can’t be your lover on a leash / Every other week, when you please” and “As much as I act like I want to forget it / I still wish for you at 11:11,” Gray collapsed onto a bed in the middle of the stage surrounded by a sea of fluffy clouds that appeared almost heavenly.

For the last song of the second act, Gray performed part of a segment he calls “Conan’s Campfire,” in which he sings a different song at every show while relaxing in a fold-up chair at the very edge of the stage. For his Boston performance, Gray chose “Movies” from his sophomore album “Superache.” He cited his love for the movie “Good Will Hunting” — a movie set completely in Boston — as his inspiration for choosing the track.

As Gray disappeared backstage for a costume change, the screen lit up with “i took the long way to realization” to present the third act of the show. The clever theming behind dividing the concert into four distinct sections allows the audience to journey through the phases of Gray’s complicated love life alongside him, accompanying him through the triumphs and pain of his discography.

This act features two unreleased songs: “The Best” and “Heather” variant, “Heather (Lost Verse Version).” While Gray sang “The Best,” the lyrics scrolled on the screen behind him, a considerate touch that allowed even the newest of fans to enjoy the song. Halfway through this section of the show, Gray performed another surprise song, this time with a more unique twist on how it was chosen. A consistent bit throughout the tour, the names of two of his songs are displayed on the screen, Gray selects a fan from the audience with whom to break a giant wishbone. When the audience member inevitably wins, they receive the honor of choosing which song they want Gray to sing; at the Boston show, “Sunset Tower” was chosen over “Astronomy.”

The final act was the shortest of the four, entitled “i wished for love and i found it.” Featuring two of his top five most listened to tracks, the fourth act served as a reflection on Gray’s fame and how far he has come in his career since songs from his debut album became viral on TikTok.

Ending on a nostalgic note, Gray closed the encore with “Caramel,” singing about the lingering longing that comes with romanticizing the past, especially when reflecting on time spent with a lover.

By the end of the night, Gray had taken the audience on a journey through his life and career, facing the vulnerability that came with it head-on. While there were few moments where Gray took time to speak directly to the audience, his songs spoke for themselves, both reflecting on the past and looking towards the future. As the last chords echoed through TD Garden, the audience left, feeling as if Gray’s emotions were their own.
