Some doors aren’t meant to be opened… but that’s never stopped us before 👀🔦
Spectacular effects, an all-new mystery, and a deeper dive into the Stranger Things universe are all headed to Broadway. We sat down with the cast of Stranger Things: The First Shadow to uncover what’s lurking in the shadows and behind the curtain.
This prequel takes us back to 1959 Hawkins, Indiana, where the beloved adult characters we know and love are still navigating their teen years—setting the stage for a world of mystery and mayhem.
Get ready for Broadway’s eeriest new chapter, and head to the link in our bio to read the full interview.

‼️ SCREAMING ‼️
Thank you to the Duffer Brothers, Stephen Daldry, Justin Martin, Kate Trefry, Jim Carnahan Casting, Sonia Friedman productions, Netflix, Iris and Ellen and each and every other brilliant human who has shepherded me into this universe on this journey.
To return to Broadway in this show, to play Joyce, to walk in Winona Ryders footsteps as one of the single most iconic characters ever created , it is an explosion of expression and feeling. The biggest gift.
Here we go, tickets for you:

HUGE news regarding @thetestmusical !! We have received investment to create an 8–9 track concept album of “THE TEST.”
With exceptional theatre performers bringing it to life, we are one step closer to sharing the sounds of this show with the world.
We desperately need continued conversation and dialogue about mental health and LGBTQ+ community, and to forward that conversation through this medium is a gift.
Follow us to see our documented journey! The album will be released on streaming platforms soon ~ #musicaltheatre #musicaltheater #broadway #conceptalbum #newmusical
