Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical catapults audiences back to the neon-soaked nostalgia of the 1980s! Packed with high-energy musical numbers, outrageous character send-ups, and clever winks at the beloved Netflix series, the show flips the Upside Down right-side up as it follows the kids of Hawkins, Indiana on their hilariously heightened adventure. Eleven belts, Barb gets her due, the Demogorgon dances, and every fan-favorite moment from all five seasons gets lovingly skewered with a pop-theatre sensibility.
With a synth-driven score, an immersive comic-book-meets-campfire aesthetic, and a tone that balances affectionate parody with whip-smart humor, Stranger Sings! celebrates the heart and friendships at the core of the original while delighting newcomers with its manic fun. The result is a joyously off-beat musical ride—equal parts nostalgia trip, spoof, and love letter to a cultural phenomenon. Whether you’re a super fan or simply love a clever send-up, this musical promises a weird, wild, and wonderfully upside-down night at the theatre.

“You don’t have to be an ardent follower of the Netflix (series) to be thoroughly entertained by Jonathan Hogue’s sprightly, savvy book, music and lyrics, all of which reveal a budding theater-maker.”
“If Stranger Things Twitter, theatre Twitter, and ’80s kids all created a show together, it would look something like Stranger Sings! … Smartly, Stranger Sings! hand-picks only a few key moments from the latter seasons to add … making the show feel up-to-date without being overwhelming.”
