In this episode, we dive into the Broadway production of Stranger Things: The First Shadow at the Marquis Theatre. We break down how the play brings 1959 Hawkins to life, its ties to the original Netflix series, and what makes this prequel stand out on stage. We talk about the show’s jaw-dropping special effects, standout performances, and why the design team deserves a Tony nod. Plus, we share our own experiences in the audience and debate whether the play works for both die-hard fans and newcomers.
