Overview

A stage musical adaptation of the time-travel story first told in the 1985 film, presented as a show at Edinburgh Playhouse in Edinburgh.

Back to the Future The Musical is a stage adaptation of the time-travel story first told in the 1985 film. Its central figures are Marty McFly, a teenager sent back to 1955 in a modified car, and the eccentric inventor Doc Brown, who helps him attempt the return. The plot turns on Marty making sure his parents meet, or he will never be born. Songs and dialogue carry the action between the two decades.

The production is staged at Edinburgh Playhouse, a venue that hosts concerts and shows in Edinburgh. Its appeal lies in a familiar story retold through live musical theatre, so it suits those who know the film and those coming to the story for the first time.
