Back to the Future Musical in London

Strap yourself in and let the DeLorean take you back to the 80s, then to the 50s, then back to the 80s again with Back to the Future the musical! The classic film is brought to the stage in spectacular fashion, with effects that must be seen to be believed, songs from the film, and more exhilarating surprises than you could dream of at The Strand's Adelphi Theatre.

Winner of the Olivier Award for 'Best New Musical', this is an exhilarating ride that mixes nostalgia with cutting-edge technology for the wildest theatre ride ever.

About Back to the Future the Musical

When ‘80s teenager Marty McFly helps his friend - and possible mad scientist - Doc Brown with a brand new invention, he gets way more than he bargained for! Propelled back to the 1950s by a time-travelling DeLorean, Marty has to make sure his parents get together, otherwise, he might never exist at all…

This musical adaptation features a brand new score by Grammy winners Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard, as well as classic tunes from the film, such as "The Power of Love" and "Johnny B. Goode".

Back to the Future Adapted for the Stage

This turbo-charged musical boasts a fantastic creative team that makes the sci-fi film leap from screen to stage with mind-blowing success.

The show is written and adapted by Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis, who fans will recognise as the minds behind the original film franchise, and has music and lyrics by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard. Silvestri is an Academy Award-nominated composer and long-time collaborator of Zemeckis’, and his extensive credits include Back to the Future, Who Framed Roger Rabbit and The Bodyguard.

Olivier Award-winning designer Tim Hatley (Life of Pi; Dreamgirls ), choreographer Chris Bailey, video designer Finn Ross, illusion designer Chris Fisher, director John Rando, and many, many more have worked tirelessly to recreate the awe and excitement of the film’s biggest moments live on stage as if you are seeing them for the first time.

You will gaze in awe as the most iconic scenes are recreated using a state-of-the-art mix of lighting, projection, mechanical staging and all manner of technical wizardry!

Back to the Future Musical Awards

Amazing show, incredible scenery and the car was brilliant, definitely recommend, although there were some alterations to the film storyline, overall its the same (which was my dad's main worry, that it wouldn't stay true to the film, which it did)
