What happens when a teenage boy befriends a time-traveling scientist in 1985? An adventure through the decades that doesn't need roads. Marty McFly finds himself back in 1955, the year his parents met — and he accidentally meddles in their love story. Can he make things right and fix his own future? Find out at this musical fueled by "The Power of Love" and, of course, plenty of plutonium.

The Back to the Future film, which the stage musical is based on, was an instant hit when it premiered in 1985, winning an Oscar, a Hugo Award, and three Saturn Awards. It's since inspired two other movies and plenty of companion media, but the original film is a cult classic, having been inducted into the National Film Registry and remaining the best-known credit of Michael J. Fox (who played Marty) and Christopher Lloyd (scientist Doc Brown).

The show's creators initially planned to premiere the Back to the Future musical in 2015, the year Marty and Doc travel to in Back to the Future: Part II. Following changes in the creative team, the show ended up premiering in Manchester, England, in 2020 and transferring to London's West End in 2021. It was worth the wait, as its future held success — Back to the Future won three Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical.

If you like your musical comedies with a healthy dose of sci-fi, special effects, and fan-favorite characters, then great Scott, you've got to see Back to the Future in New York. Set an alert for Back to the Future tickets on TodayTix now.

What to Watch For

  • Bob Gale, who co-wrote the Back to the Future screenplay with Robert Zemeckis, also wrote the musical's book.
  • Back to the Future has an illusion designer, Chris Fisher, to recreate all its science fiction-esque special effects, like the flying DeLorean and Marty's evaporation during the school dance scene.
  • Two cast members from the London production, Roger Bart and Hugh Coles, reprise their roles in the original Back to the Future Broadway cast. They play Doc Brown and George McFly, respectively.
  • True to the time periods it bounces between, Back to the Future includes various music styles, from '80s rock to '50s doo-wop. In addition to the new songs by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard, hits from the film like "The Power of Love," "Earth Angel," and "Johnny B. Goode" also pop up during the musical.
  • Great Scott! Fox and Lloyd have both seen the Back to the Future musical and raved about it.
