Straight from off-Broadway, we’re thrilled to announce the UK premiere of Stranger Sings! This award-winning sci-fi spoof is a wild, irreverent twist on the hit Netflix series - in all its hair-raising, blockbuster glory.

Take a trip with your favourite gang on a night of indulgent pop culture references, heavy synth, poor parenting, dancing demogorgons and maybe - just maybe - you might find justice for Barb along the way.

Let the incredible original writing of Jonathan Hogue subvert the genre with this fearless parody, where there are too many mullets, a generous helping of fairy lights, and the 80s finally embraces feminism.

Books, Music and Lyrics by Jonathan Hogue

Produced by The Vaults

Directed by Ellis Kerkhoven

Assistant Directed by Madeleine
