"Just loved it - so glad we chose to see BTTF rather than one of the ‘classic’ shows that we’ve seen before. Slick set changes and great use of effects, great cast and I loved the way they adapted the film to fit the stage without loosing any fun of the film but adding the charm of the live characters. Great Scott, it’s highly recommended!"

"Attending the Back to the Future musical was a truly magical experience. From the moment the show began, the cast transported me back to the 80s, filling the theater with an incredible energy that made the night unforgettable. The show’s message about how visionaries change the world really moved me. The idea that it only takes one person to believe in a dream, even when others don’t see its potential, brought me to tears. It’s a powerful reminder that great change often begins with those bold enough to imagine something different and take action, even against the odds. Thank you to every member of the cast for a night filled with emotion, hope, and the inspiring reminder that we all have the power to create a better future. This was an extraordinary experience that will stay with me!"
