Coming soon to the West End stage, Stranger Things: The First Shadow will be a prequel to the events of the Netflix series, written by Kate Trefry from an original story by Matt and Ross Duffer, Jack Thorne and Trefry and directed by Emmy, Tony and BAFTA winner Stephen Daldry with co-direction by Justin Martin. The show will be set 24 years before the series and will explore the origin story of Jim Hopper. The synopsis reads, 'Hawkins, 1959: a regular town with regular worries. Young Jim Hopper’s car won’t start, Bob Newby’s sister won’t take his radio show seriously and Joyce Maldonado just wants to graduate and get the hell out of town.' It is also said to 'hold the key to the end'. The cast has yet to be announced, but it will be staged at the Phoenix Theatre.
