Get ready for a night of laughter, nostalgia and musical magic as Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical takes the stage at Haislip Theatre. This Arkansas-premiere theatre event promises an unforgettable experience for fans of both musical theatre and the hit series that inspired it.

Stranger Sings! The Parody Musical is a hilarious “upside down” take on the hit Netflix series Stranger Things. The show reimagines the world of Hawkins, Indiana, with catchy tunes, witty humor and 1980s nostalgia. Expect a fresh take on your favorite characters as they sing, dance, and encounter the Upside Down in ways you’ve never seen before. 

“These rehearsals have brought some of the biggest laughs I’ve ever shared working on a show, and that energy has carried through every step of the process.” says Caelon Colbert, Director of the production, “There’s something special about a company that fully leans into the humor, heart, and absurdity of this piece, and it’s going to make this show unforgettable.” 

With a cast of lovable characters, show-stopping songs, and plenty of laughs, this production truly has something for everyone. Whether you’re a die-hard Stranger Things enthusiast or simply looking for a fun night out at the theatre, Stranger Sings! delivers an adventure that combines parody, music, and storytelling – with a PG-13 edge that adds to its comedic bite.
