Stranger Things: The First Shadow transports the iconic 1980s sci-fi series from the small screen to the West End stage with flair and creativity. Directed by the three-time Oscar-nominated Stephen Daldry, the play serves as a prequel to the beloved TV series, offering fans a deeper dive into the mysteries of Hawkins, Indiana.

Nick Curtis,
The Standard5/5
“This astonishing experience is full of enough thrills, scares and knowing nods to please fans and the uninitiated in equal measure”
Arifa Akbar,
The Guardian5/5
“This origin story has all the dark mystery of the Duffer Brothers’ Netflix series and delivers one coup de theatre after another”
Alice Saville,
Independent4/5
“Humungous projections, a big musical score, an onslaught of foam, dry ice and flares: this big-budget stage play from the ‘Stranger Things’ universe spares no bombastic effect to bring new audiences flocking to the West End.”

The Mousetrap
MARK GAVIN DAWSON
Very persuasive and enthusiastic performances.
No songs.
A wonderful theatre -- 100+ years old, quaint, charming and packed with a buzzing audience who helped create a wonderful atmosphere.

It was a small theater, cozy atmosphere. Super show with good cast and especially the singing of the lead actors was very good!

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Nicole Nieweg
For true Harry Potter fans, the play is a highlight. I have seen this play in Hamburg and London, I have to admit that Hamburg manages to make this event big. London can take a leaf out of its book. Nevertheless, it was good.

Phantom of the Opera
Belinda Lavon Gonzalez
The show as fantastic and the theatre was Magnificent! I live in Tampa, Florida and we don't have historical theaters so we were in awe ant the beauty of His Majesty. I've been to several in New York and this venue surpassed those.
The staff was friendly, helpful and moved us in quickly. Toilettes were clean.
The theater sound was incredible!!
