Stranger Things: The First Shadow Tickets - Phoenix Theatre

BEFORE THE WORLD TURNED UPSIDE DOWN…

Kate Trefry's Stranger Things: The First Shadow at the Phoenix Theatre features an original story by the Duffer Brothers, Jack Thorne & Kate Trefry, and is based on the popular Netflix Series. Directed by Stephen Daldry

The scene is set from within the world and mythology of Stranger Things as we arrive in Hawkins, 1959: just a regular town with regular worries. Bob Newby’s sister refuses to take his radio show seriously, young Jim Hopper’s car doesn't want to start, and Joyce Maldonado wants to just graduate and get the hell out of town.

New student Henry Creel arrives in town looking for a fresh start with a clean slate, however, his family finds that this isn’t an easy task… and the dark shadows of the past still have a long reach.

Stranger Things: The First Shadow is brought to life on stage by a multi-award-winning creative team taking theatrical stagecraft and storytelling to a whole new dimension as this gripping adventure transports you right back to the start of the Stranger Things story – and perhaps holds the key to the end.

Are There Any Age Restrictions For Booking Tickets To The Phoenix Theatre? 

The official recommended age to watch shows at the Phoenix Theatre will be determined on a case-by-case basis depending on the production. Please be aware that children under 4 years will usually not be admitted to the theatre.

Are There Any Tickets To Stranger Things: The First Shadow That Should Be Avoided? 

It is always advisable to check the seating plan before making a decision on which tickets to choose. The Phoenix Theatre does not have too many seats with a restricted view and the seats that are R/V should be marked as such on the seating plan as well as on the ticket itself. The level of restriction should also be reflected in the price (for example, if a seat priced at £15 is next to a seat priced at £150 it is a safe bet to assume that the restriction will be pretty severe!) When it comes to clear-view seats, however, checking the price differentials can save you a lot of money as all of the different price bands have to have a cut-off point by default and it is there that the real value lies as you can very often find tickets either next to each other or in front of each other that have a massive difference in the price tag yet they both have a completely clear view of the stage! The savings are there if you look.

Do They Ever Discount Tickets At The Phoenix Theatre?

They do but not often. There will always be quiet weeks in a supply and demand business like the West End and bargain hunting for discount tickets during off-peak weeks and Monday to Thursday performances can yield big dividends. The official shops in and around Leicester Square also have on occasion access to certain discount rates midweek that you will rarely find online and never at the box office so if you prefer to make the effort to go into town to book tickets through retail outlets rather than online it can sometimes bring savings.

Are Upper Circle Tickets To Stranger Things: The First Shadow  Any Good?

The Phoenix Theatre is not one of the largest venues in the West End so as long as the seats do not come with a restriction then the Upper Circle tickets are generally speaking fairly priced. It is always advisable to check the seating plan before booking though to make sure that you know exactly where in the auditorium you will be sitting so that you can get a proper idea of what the view of the stage will be like from that vantage point. There should always be a direct correlation between the product that you are receiving and the price that you are paying so checking the seating plan before purchase will always increase the odds in the favour of the consumer and reduce the chance of disappointment.

How Can I Find Cheap Tickets At The Phoenix Theatre?

If you are looking to save money on tickets to Stranger Things: The First Shadow, it is advisable to steer clear of weekends and performances during peak times such as school holidays. When searching for value in the West End it is always worth looking at the weeks that follow from half term holidays especially in the quieter dark months such as February when a general lack of footfall in London will always produce lastminute value to the consumer.

The Phoenix Theatre is a medium size West End theatre with a capacity of 1028 seats. The venue benefits from a deep auditorium that has a tall and narrow feel to it but there are thankfully few obstructions to the view of the stage and due to the raking of the seating the stage can be seen clearly from most seats.

The best seats in the theatre are located in the mid-centre of the Stalls, most specifically in rows C-K which offer clear, unobstructed views of the whole stage and have good legroom. Seats in the front rows of the Dress Circle also offer excellent panoramic views of the stage for those who prefer to view the stage from an elevated position.

For those on a budget or looking for value and cheap tickets to Stranger Things: The First Shadow, sitting towards the end of rows offers excellent, and often discounted views of the stage and as there is only a very slight curve around the stage there is still a good view of the stage even from the very end of a row. The Grand Circle also offers good value for money with completely clear views of the stage for a very reasonable price.
