Great Scott! It’s time for “perfect musical escapism” (Metro) with the winner of Best New Musical at the Olivier and WhatsOnStage Awards – Back to the Future: The Musical.
When Marty McFly finds himself transported back to 1955 in a time machine built by the eccentric scientist Doc Brown, he accidentally changes the course of history. Now he’s in a race against time to fix the present, escape the past and send himself... back to the future.
Adapting this iconic story for the stage are the movie’s creators Bob Gale (Back to the Future trilogy) and Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump). The production features original music by multi-Grammy winners Alan Silvestri (Avengers: Endgame) and Glen Ballard (Michael Jackson’s Man in the Mirror), alongside hit songs from the movie including The Power of Love, Johnny B Goode, Earth Angel and Back in Time.
Set your destination time and get ready for this “whacking great hit of spectacle, entertainment and nostalgia” (Mail on Sunday).
