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 show was amazing. We enjoyed our stay, everything was perfect. It was so worth it, the next time we're in London we would come again and see this amazing show.

ABBA Voyage
Erik Sjodin
I saw ABBA first time in 1973 before they became famous in my hometown Lycksele. This show was excellent good in many ways. Especially the moves from in coordination between movies and the avatars. That made them more real.. A masterpiece from start to the end!! First time i cry in a show like this. Thd sound was better then in reality. Such a great job all of you made for all of us.. MAGIC.

ABBA Voyage

Best of the best!! Not only was Abba "there" but Céline Dion was in the audience on this wonderful evening. Stylish lighting and incredibly authentic that you could almost believe it was 1974 again. Good recharge before at Snoozbar outside the arena. Worth every €.

The booking experience was both quick and easy. One suggestion is that if you use the underground to Victoria which exit to use from the station as we chose the wrong one and it took some time to find the theatre.

Booked day before for myself and mum as found ourselves in London and fancied a show. Took a chance on Mrs Doubtfire and all I can say is that it was fabulous from start to finish. Such energy and talent by the cast. Loved it.
