Marty McFly is a rock 'n' roll teenager who is accidentally transported back to 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean invented by his friend, Dr. Emmett Brown. But before he can return to 1985, Marty must make sure his high school-aged parents fall in love in order to save his own existence.
The worst thing you can do is come to “Back to the Future: The Musical” and expect the movie. The differences — big and small — could drive longtime fans of the 1985 blockbuster crazy. Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd aren’t walking through the door at the KeyBank State Theatre anytime soon either.
Yes, there was some carping that “the score [which contains such quickly forgettable songs as “Got No Future,” “Cake,” “Something About the Boy” and “For the Dreamers”] was mainly superfluous,” but audiences don’t seem to mind. In fact, if the assemblage at the Key Bank State Theatre the night I saw the touring show is any indicator, the musical will also become a cult favorite as it tours the hinterlands.
