Back to the Future: The Musical

Broadway travels back in time to the 1950s, by way of the 1980s, in a musical adaptation of the hit 1985 movie that offers comedic science fiction with an Oedipal twist. Bob Gale adapts his screenplay (cowritten with Robert Zemeckis) around key songs from the movie, such as "The Power of Love," as well as new ones by original composer Alan Silvestri and Jagged Little Pill songsmith Glen Ballard. John Rando (Urinetown) directs the production, Casey Likes (Almost Famous) plays Michael J. Fox role of Marty McFly, and two actors from the show's 2020 U.K. premiere reprise their roles: Roger Bart as Doc Brown and Hugh Coles as George McFly.
