Here’s a synopsis: 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. When new student Henry Creel arrives, his family finds that a fresh start isn’t so easy… and the shadows of the past have a very long reach.
Performances are set to begin on March 28, 2025 at the Marquis Theatre, and the play will officially open on Broadway on April 22nd.
Alex Breaux is also set to appear in the upcoming fifth and final season of Stranger Things on Netflix, which is set to wrap filming by the end of the year.
