Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical is a wild and irreverent send-up of the hit Netflix series “Stranger Things” and all its campy ‘80s glory. Take a trip back to Hawkins, Indiana, 1983: when times were simpler, hair was bigger, and unsupervised children were getting snatched by inter-dimensional creatures. Join Mike, Eleven, Lucas, Dustin, and the whole Hawkins gang for a night of adventure, thrills, pubescent angst, heavy synth, poor parenting, convoluted love triangles, cheap effects, dancing monsters, and maybe, just maybe… justice for everyone’s favorite frumpy ginger, Barb Holland.
The award-winning, hit Off-Broadway show Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical is taking over the world, with all new productions this fall in London and Australia, and a return Off-Broadway.
The show returns Off-Broadway this fall, transporting Playhouse 46 at St. Luke’s (308 W. 46th Street) into satirized versions of Hawkins, Indiana and the Upside Down. Performances begin Monday, September 12th, with an official Opening Night set for Thursday, September 22nd. The 16-week limited engagement is set to run through Sunday, January 1st, 2023. This production reunites original creative team members Jonathan Hogue (Book, Music, & Lyrics), Nick Flatto (Director), Michael Kaish (Music Direction, Orchestrations, & Arrangements), and Ashley Marinelli (Choreographer).
The London production will set the off-kilter world of Stranger Sings! within a maze of disused railway arches underneath Waterloo Station. Directed by Ellis Kerkhoven (Nightshade, Who Put Bella In The Wych Elm?), Stranger Sings! will play The Vaults (Launcelot Street, SE1 7AD), London’s home for immersive theatre and alternative arts, for 13 weeks, October 5 – December 31, 2022.
Turning the Down Under Upside Down, Australia’s Salty Theatre will feature an all new production in Melbourne at the historic Meat Market (3 Blackwood Street). Directed by Ashley Taylor Tickell (Top Gun! The Musical - AD/Choreographer), Stranger Sings! will play November 3-19, 2022, with additional Australian plans to be announced.
Winner of seven 2021 BroadwayWorld Off-Broadway Awards including ‘Best New Musical’, Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical had its world premiere at Feinstein’s/54 Below on October 13, 2018. The show subsequently received a smash hit Off-Broadway run at The Players Theatre in Summer 2021. The production released an Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording in Fall 2021, available on all major platforms.
