city London: Last News

London is the capital and largest city of England and the United Kingdom. Standing on the River Thames in the south-east of England, at the head of its 50-mile (80 km) estuary leading to the North Sea, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. Londinium was founded by the Romans. The City of London, London's ancient core − an area of just 1.12 square miles (2.9 km2) and colloquially known as the Square Mile − retains boundaries that closely follow its medieval limits. The City of Westminster is also an Inner London borough holding city status. London is governed by the mayor of London and the London Assembly.

WATCH: A ‘Stranger Things’ prequel is about to hit Broadway. But how queer will it be?

Netflix series and wowed audiences when it debuted in London in December 2023. The production jumps the pond to arrive on Broadway, with previews beginning March 28 and an opening set for April 22—just in time for Tony Awards consideration in what’s proving to be a crowded season.Subscribe to our newsletter for your front-row seat to all things entertainment with a sprinkle of everything else queer.Much has been surmised about LGBTQ+ visibility in the series, with fans and critics alike debating whether the TV series is queer-coded or queer-baiting.

In an interview with Variety during the height of the series’ success, actor Noah Schnapp, who played Will, the character in question, said, “I feel like they never really address it or blatantly say how Will is. I think that’s the beauty of it, that it’s just up to the audience’s interpretation, if it’s Will kind of just refusing to grow up and growing up slower than his friends, or if he is really gay.”Will doesn’t even appear in the prequel stage iteration, but with a cast of 34, we can only hope that out director Stephen Daldry (the creative force behind the epic theatrical saga The Inheritance, for which he won a Tony Award) may imbue the piece with some queer sensibility.

The play also stars T.R. Knight (Grey’s Anatomy) as Victor Creel, Henry’s father, serving daddy vibes for his fifth Broadway production.Here’s a first look at Stranger Things: The First Shadow.
