Strangerthingsonstage Reviews 

One of the best theatre productions I’ve seen. The effects & casting was fantastic. If you are a fan of the show you’ll love this! Highly recommend

The story line, the special effects, the set but most importantly the cast. Every single aspect of this show I outstanding. Highly highly recommend. You will not regret seeing this show. We were row O four from the back and could see everything on stage. Good prices tickets.
For any theater or stranger things lover this is a must see!!

Superb acting and special effects. A truly excellent experience that my whole family intensely enjoyed including members who had never seen the series.

The show was great. It is a well written, fully immersive from the start. The perfect compliment to the series.

- The cast were brilliant, making the characters truly believable.
- Stage/set design was dynamic, utilising height and depth to great effect.
- The effects where truely amazing. A great mix of pyrotechnics, fog, lighting and projections.

There was only one downside, something i think (i hope) was unintentional. The auditorium ceiling lights above us (we were in the stalls) was left on during the second part. Unfortunately, this did kill some of the immersion for me and my wife as the show really benefits from the play between light and dark. Such a shame.

However, without this issue, this show is truely worth a watch.

Where do I start, the show was absolutely mind-blowing. An immersive visual sensation and the casting was perfect, we were lucky enough to be able to see the expressions on the faces of actors and the mannerisms and personality quirks were spot on to the tv shows cast. They put their all into the performance and I immediately wanted to watch it again. The illness of Isabella Pappas just before interval was handled seamlessly (I hope she was ok, she was outstanding). Honestly not seen a better play, yes I'm a stranger things fan but this deserves it's own accolade, the whole theatre gave a standing ovation.

The show is amazing. The story and actors were brilliant. Only point of issue is the seating. If you are seated in the stalls your view will be blocked which can be very frustrating (especially as the plot is really captivating!). Overall a brilliant show and really recommended.

An absolute brilliant stage production. The best show l have seen. The special effects were fantastic. The acting, especially the character Henry Creel was superb. The show got a standing ovation and rightly deserved. Highly recommend

This is by far one of the best performances we have ever seen! The performers, production, special effects - everything was executed so well. We didn’t book the ‘best’ seats which we was advised upon booking that there would be obstruction of hand rail and lighting - Grand Circle Row A 25-28 however we was pleasantly surprised, they were not that bad at all.
Overall if you are a stranger things fan, you need to see this show! Everyone is so talented and I have never seen an audience go as wild as they did for this show! A must see!

My daughter and I loved the show and the staff was helpful and friendly very nice theatre

Amazing production, acting, theatre

I paid a good bit of money to sit near the front and it was so worth it! Such talented cast and crew telling the Stranger Things prequel on stage. The show was immersive which I enjoyed very much. Would happily go see it again, 5/5 rating.

Quite simply incredible. Even if you’ve never watched the Netflix Series, it’s an engrossing standalone show that’s still easy to follow. And if you are a fan of the series, it’s a great backstory.

Blending horror and humour isn’t easy, but they pull it off with aplomb. And clever use of a revolving stage and the wider auditorium make it feel immersive.

Some purists might argue it’s over-reliant on (awesome) special effects. But when the script, choreography and acting talent are equally superb, it’s the perfect combination. And a particular shoutout to Louis McCartney (Henry Creel) who, for a twenty year old with no prior stage experience, is simply outstanding.

We paid full price for the best seats. Given the duration, complexity and quality of the show, it’s the first time we’ve actually sat there and said, “perfectly happy to have paid that price. That was value for money” (which can’t be said for the theatre bar, which is an utter ripoff!)

I hope this show has a successful run of many, many years. And we will certainly be back to see it again!

Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The special effects were so well done and the acting was excellent. Brilliant 🤩

It was fantastic all round! The cast were brilliant, and resembled the cast from the Netflix show. The storyline was exciting and lead onto the Netflix show really well! The staging, lighting and props were fantastic. We were sat two rows back from the front so we managed to see everything in so much detail. Would defo go and see again. If you like the Netflix show, you’ll like this show!

Incredible acting, the best live special effects, fantastic script. Both me and my wife say its the best show we have ever seen.

Garbage didn’t go back for the second half . Waste of time waste of money . Boring!!

Really great theatrics and superb acting. Plays on the show obviously but has an original plot that does keep you on the edge.

Incredible show! Impressive special effects and great cast. If you like the TV series this is a must see.

The show was technically excellent and the acting was superb.

I’d echo what some others have said about making sure you have a seat without viewing restrictions to ensure you don’t miss any action, but I couldn’t mark the show down for this reason.

One of the best things I’ve seen on stage, and I’ve see a lot of theatre!

I want to give it a 5 star as the storyline and actors were so good but our seats had a restricted view on row Q in the stalls. I didn’t realise this when I booked my fault for not reading the small print but still paid £50 and couldn’t see a crucial scene near the end. This spoilt it for us but hoping to get seats again but with a better view. Also there were young kids around 7or8 years old it’s not a kids show and they kept jumping up moving around talking because they didn’t understand what was going on
The special effects were brilliant
