Welcome to Hill Valley!Set your destination time, New York and get ready to go back in time with Marty McFly. Since its Broadway debut in August 2023, Back to the Future: The Musical has brought nostalgic charm, jaw-dropping effects, and electrifying energy. to the Winter Garden Theatre. Based on the beloved 1985 film, this musical adaptation is a time-traveling thrill ride that combines humor, heart, and unforgettable songs into a high-voltage theatrical experience.
What’s the show about? Teenager Marty McFly finds himself accidentally sent back to 1955 in a time machine built by the eccentric Doc Brown. Stranded in the past, Marty must make sure his parents fall in love or risk erasing his own future—while finding a way to return to 1985. Packed with humor, adventure, and just the right amount of sci-fi, Back to the Future stays true to the spirit of the original movie while adding new twists for the stage.
The musical features a high-energy score that combines fan-favorite hits from the film, like “The Power of Love” and “Johnny B. Goode,” with new songs by Emmy and Grammy winners Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard. Directed by Tony Award winner John Rando, the production is a visual and technical treat, boasting spectacular special effects—including a flying DeLorean—that leave audiences awestruck.
After its initial success in London’s West End, where it won the Olivier Award for Best New Musical, Back to the Future arrived on Broadway, led by Casey Likes as Marty McFly and Tony winner Roger Bart as Doc Brown. Beyond Broadway, Back to the Future is quickly becoming a global sensation, with international productions and a North American tour in development.
Now’s your chance to hop into the time machine and experience Back to the Future: The Musical live on stage. Whether you’re an ’80s movie buff or just looking for an unforgettable night of theater, this show will leave you saying, “Great Scott!” Don’t wait—get your tickets before they disappear into the past!
Some will insist that the show is meant for “Back to the Future” super fans only. Well, speaking as one of those super fans who has watched the film trilogy countless times to the point of “Pledge of Allegiance”-like recitation, the musical left me cold and uninvolved. It made me want to go back… to the movie!
It's an odd paradox, that Back to the Future assumes prior familiarity with the film such that the players need little introduction, while positing nearly every character as worthy of substantial exploration. Chalk it up, perhaps, to the fact that two of the movie's creators are involved: Bob Gale adapted the musical's book from his and Robert Zemeckis's screenplay, and Alan Silvestri, who composed the film score, co-wrote the musical's rollicking score with Glen Ballard. They clearly know and adore all their characters, but not all audiences have the same depth of understanding, especially 28 years on from the film's premiere. But like the DeLorean climbing to the crucial 88 miles per hour, the writers ultimately succeed in building the show's momentum and narrative heft. Once Marty meets his teenaged parents, Lorraine and George, in 1955 and catches Lorraine's eye before George can, he has to course-correct — and gets to know his parents better in the process. Back to the Future is really a story about how the young can shape older generations' futures, after all, not just the other way around.
