Sussex and Surrey dates for new parody musical Stranger Sings!

Dates include December 2 at Congress Theatre, Eastbourne; February 8 and 9 at Parkwood Theatre, Crawley; and May 26 and 27 at GLive, Guildford.

A spokesman said: “Straight from off-Broadway, to a UK premiere three-month sell-out run in London, we’re now thrilled to announce the UK nationwide theatre tour of Stranger Sings! This award-winning sci-fi spoof is a wild, irreverent twist on the hit Netflix series - in all its hair-raising, blockbuster glory. Take a trip with your favourite gang on a night of indulgent pop culture references, heavy synth, poor parenting, dancing demogorgons and maybe - just maybe - you might find justice for Barb along the way.

“Let the incredible original writing of Jonathan Hogue subvert the genre with this fearless parody where there are too many mullets, a generous helping of fairy lights, and the 80s finally embraces feminism. So, hop(per) on your bike and grab your transmitter radio (don’t forget your inhaler); because saving your friends is the answer to this never-ending story.”

Books, music and Lyrics by Jonathan Hogue. Produced by The Vaults. Directed by Ellis Kerkhoven. Assistant directed by Madeleine MacMahon. Musical supervision by Adam Gerber. Choreographed by Lucinda Lawrence. Costume design by Ellie Farrow.
