What is Back to the Future The Musical about?

Based on one of the most beloved science-fiction movies of the 80’s, Back to the Future The Musical tells the time traveling tale of Marty McFly.

He’s a regular teenager living in small town America. Skateboards. Rock’n’Roll. High school sweethearts.

Slightly more unusual is that his best friend is eccentric scientist, Doctor Emmet Brown.

When Doc Brown invents a time machine inside a modified DeLorean, Marty’s world gets turned upside down. After accidentally changing the course of history, Marty has to to fix the present, escape the past and send himself… back to the future!

The success of the Back to the Future films made stars Michael J Fox (Marty McFly) and Christopher Lloyd (Doc Brown) into household names. Now with their full support, the Academy Award-winning movie comes to the stage at the Adelphi Theatre for the first time.
