About the show

Welcome to Hill Valley and take an electrifying ride back in time as the 1985 blockbuster film and pop culture phenomenon arrives in London’s West End. This time it’s a groundbreaking new musical adventure.

  • Marty McFly suddenly found himself transported in a time machine back to 1955, thanks to eccentric scientist Doc Brown. By doing so he accidentally begins to change the course of history. Now he’s in a race against time to fix the present, escape the past and send himself once again back to the future.
  • Strap yourself in for a thrilling theatrical experience, especially when the musical hits 88 mph.
  • Film creators Bob Gale (Back to the Future trilogy) and Robert Zemeckis (Forrest Gump) have adapted the iconic Back to the Future story for the stage. The production features original music by multi-Grammy winners Alan Silvestri (Avengers: Endgame) and Glen Ballard (Michael Jackson’s Man in the Mirror), alongside the movie’s hit songs The Power of Love, Johnny B Goode, Earth Angel and Back in Time
  • The Tony and Olivier Award-winning creative team is led by Tony Award winner John Rando.
