Stranger Things - The First Shadow

Stranger Things: The First Shadow is a new stage play that delves into the origins of the Stranger Things universe. This prequel tells a story set in Hawkins in 1959, focusing on younger versions of characters like Jim Hopper, Joyce Maldonado, and Bob Newby, alongside a new student named Henry Creel. Expect a production that expands on the lore of the popular series, offering insights into how the Upside Down first began to intrude on their world. This theatrical presentation is set for Tuesday, December 1, 2026, at the Marquis Theatre in New York, NY. The Marquis is a large Broadway house, well-suited for a show with potentially elaborate staging and effects. Fans of the Stranger Things series, or those interested in sci-fi and supernatural narratives on stage, will likely find this appealing.
