A Stranger Things Prequel Is Coming To The Stage:
Earlier this year,ย Stranger Things: The First Shadowย was announced. Theย stage play is coming to London’s West Endย and is set in Hawkins, Indiana in 1959, and it is based on an original story by the Duffer Brothers, Jack Thorne, and Kate Trefry. The playย will feature younger versions of the charactersย Jim Hopper, Joyce Byers, Bob Newby, and Henry Creel.ย
“We are beyond excited aboutย Stranger Things: The First Shadow,” Matt and Ross Duffer said in a statement. “Collaborating with the brilliant Stephen Daldry has been nothing short of inspiring, and Kate Trefry has written a play that is at turns surprising, scary, and heartfelt. You will meet endearing new characters, as well as very familiar ones, on a journey into the past that sets the groundwork for the future ofย Stranger Things. We’re dying to tell you more about the story but won’t โ it’s more fun to discover it for yourself. Can’t wait to see you nerds in London!” ย
“The world and mythology ofย Stranger Thingsย has enabled a rich and fertile ground for creating an incredible story for the stage,” Sonia Friedman added. “The Duffer Brothers have built a huge global following for good reason, and a world-class creative team has built on their boundless imagination to dream up an unbelievably exciting theatrical event for our audiences. Set within the canon of Stranger Things, this new play opens in London, with the West End hosting the only place in the world to experience this new story โ for now. I’m thrilled to reunite with my visionary long-term collaborator Stephen Daldry. Together, with our brilliant Netflix partners, we can’t wait to welcomeย Stranger Thingsย fans into theatre, and theatregoers into the realm ofย Stranger Things.”
How Willย Stranger Thingsย End?
Stranger Thingsย creators, Matt Duffer and Ross Duffer, recently revealed that their pitch for the fifth season was a tear-jerker.ย
“Listen. It’s our process but it’s just like, we really just try to focus on one season at a time,” Ross Dufferย previously toldย The Wrap. “We do have an outline for season 5 and we pitched it to Netflix and they really responded well to it. I mean, it was hard. It’s the end of the story. I saw executives crying who I’ve never seen cry before and it was wild. And it’s not just to do with the story, just the fact that it’s like, Oh my God, this thing that has defined so many of our lives, these Netflix people who has been with us from the beginning, seven years now, and it’s hard to imagine the journey coming to an end.”
Stranger Thingsย is expected to return for its final season in 2024.ย
