Stranger Things: The First Shadow | Bringing Stranger Things to the Stage | Netflix

The Duffer Brothers say it best - “There’s definitely more story to tell here.” Get a look behind the curtain of Stranger Things: The First Shadow as told by the epic creative team that’s bringing this story to life on stage in London’s West End. The play features Hawkins' strangest in their high school days - including Joyce Maldonado, James Hopper Jr, Bob Newby, and the infamous Henry Creel.

[@D_Gaunt]

In my opinion, Stranger Things is one of the most anticipated Netflix series.

@@cianomahony Is it a musical or play?

[@flainfan]

@@cianomahony the SpongeBob musical was at Broadway but it was still recorded and aired on tv. So The First Shadow being at Broadway is unlikely to affect its chances of being recorded.

Stranger Things is a masterpiece show, love the story, cast, the 80s setting, everything is so good, always feel happy watching the show, great job Duffer Brother’s and the cast and crew 👏👏👏 So excited for season 5.

The music supervision and the score is incredible!

[@Tocinos]

I've gained an appreciation for their special effects when looking at other films and cringing at the "scary" CGI

[@garrybrown2627]

It's definitely a nostalgic trip.. and I couldn't imagine it being in any other decade than the 1980s.. has that classic feeling and tone of all those great Steven Spielberg and Amblin movies and that Stephen King vibe and all those movie homages and easter eggs and that John Carpenter inspired score.. hopefully Stranger Things 5 ends the series with a bang.. I just know the Duffers and the cast and crew will knock it out of the park.

[@joec7217]

The fact they worked on this alongside Season 4 makes me hopeful for this play and makes me even more excited for season 5!

Yeah and it seems like you can't see it unless you go to London which I'm not gonna do so this absolutely sucks

[@leeshwan903]

Happy Stranger Things Day, nerds!!! I can't wait for this, and season 5!!! This is one of the _greatest_ Netflix shows ever made, and I can't believe that the neverending story is now slowly, but surely, coming to an end. Time flies when you're having fun.

[@v8mpvfx]

Omg stranger things is like the best and most unpredictable show ever!! I am so excited for the stage!! ❤

I hope they will sell digital copies of that at some point! 🙏

[@ChrisManley1994]

I just got back from London after seeing this play today and *WOW!* Phenomenal! Everything was so on point, the effects, the set design, the costumes, and of course the absolutely FANTASTIC cast! My two standouts had to be Isabella Pappas as Joyce Maldonado Louis McCartney as Henry Creel, they NAILED their roles! It was like they’d been plucked right out of the show itself and put right in front of us on stage!

[@warmgreytenpercent]

I bet people will love it. It would be so cool to follow this stage run with a version that high school theater depts can access, the kids would run with it

[@farhajaleel]

I just wanna know if this will be uploaded online or something... Some way for those of us who won't actually be able to go watch it, to still be able to watch it... Because if this is a prequel and has key details it would suck to not get to know what the story is...

He doubled as Eddie Munson when Eddie did Metallica's “Master of Puppets” UpsideDown scene. It was DEFINITELY Metal!😎
