Don't miss it
"If you like the movie/ then the show was fantastic / even though certain scenes was eliminated that was in the movie/ it wasn't missed /original songs written fit perfectly/ the sets and effects are incredible/on seating location in theater/ sit in middle a least 15-20 rows back from stage to get full effect of speed and effects of the car/easy to follow even if for some reason you didn't see the movies"

Who loves DeLorean's???
"The whole thing was fun. Lots of tech in this show...that was a huge wow factor. The encore was a cool addition. I don't want to give anything away but they did take some liberties with the original story. It is obvious why they changed some things from the original screenplay as it needed to work well for both 2024 and to just work as a musical. I would see it again in a heartbeat!"

Bit different but engrossing...
"Even though there are many differences from the movie, it was very enjoyable in its own way. If you haven't watched the movie (who hasn't), some of it may not make complete sense as there more detail in the movie. The effects were fantastic. I wanted to see how they would show the time travel on a theater floor and it was very skillfully done. Kudos to a show very well done! IMHO, the school scenes could be shortened a little, but that's only my opinion. I'm sure others enjoyed them."

Amazingly entertaining for all ages
"My family came to NYC for a holiday getaway. We planned to see Back to the Future as part of our trip. The show did not disappoint even for one of my attendees that doesn’t do musicals and my other adult child whom attends college for lighting design. It was fabulous. "
