Stranger Things: The origin of the series is told… in a play

Even though Stranger Things season 5 starts filming in May, the series is already making a comeback. It is said. Netflix announces the prequel, not as TV fiction, but as a play.

The information is surprising and exciting to say the least as it explores the teenage years of the adult characters and more specifically the origin of Henry Creel, also known as Vecna.

The work, titled The First Shadow – the first shadow in French – was written by Kate Trefry, the screenwriter of the original series, and the Duffer brothers, the creators of the program.

Here is a summary:Hawkins, 1959. An ordinary town with ordinary problems. Young Jim Hopper’s car won’t start, Bob Newby makes fun of his radio show, and Joyce Maldonado wants to get the hell out of town. When a new student, Henry Creel, arrives, his family struggles to make a fresh start… the shadows of the past resurface..”

A statement shared by Netflix explains that this new story may hold “the keys to the end.” Does this show play a big role in Season 5? The first performance will be at the Phoenix Theater in London at the end of 2023.
