The Broadway production of 'Stranger Things: The First Shadow' is set to debut in 2025, featuring a recast that includes T.R. Knight as Victor Creel, who is introduced as a pivotal character in the show's backstory. The stage adaptation will explore events in Hawkins during 1959, before the Netflix series' plot unfolds. Knight joins other new cast members, such as Alex Breaux as Dr. Brenner, who is already set to appear in the upcoming fifth season of the Netflix series. The production aims to expand on the lore of 'Stranger Things' and is produced by Netflix in collaboration with Sonia Friedman Productions. With preview performances beginning in March 2025, excitement builds for this prequel that ties into the final season of the hit show. The London version of the play has already received acclaim and broken box office records.
