After opening in London’s West End two years ago, Back to the Future the Musical has now transferred to Broadway’s Winter Garden Theatre.
Original UK production Doc Brown, Roger Bart, leads the New York cast of the stage version of the classic 1985 time travel comedy.
Film trilogy and show creators Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis were in attendance this week at the gala premiere by Times Square, alongside the movies’ executive producer Steven Spielberg.
Joining them were the film’s Doc and Marty themselves Christopher Lloyd and Michael J Fox, alongside Lorraine star Lea Thompson.
This was the first time that Fox had seen Back to the Future the Musical live, having previously only watched a video recording of the West End production.
At the time, Fox said of Back to the Future the Musical: “I’m buzzing from what is a truly great show. It captures the entire BTTF Experience through sensational casting, effective story edits, great Tech work & Special FX.
“The actors were impeccable, with an energy and passion commensurate with us originals. And the music is freaking great, from the Huey Lewis songs to the Silvestri score and all the new songs and set pieces. It really is a small miracle. Congratulations to all of the amazing people involved. It looks like a hit to me!”
Also in attendance at Back to the Future the Musical’s Broadway opening night were the trilogy’s original composer Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard who wrote the music and lyrics for the songs throughout the show.
Meanwhile, Huey Lewis, whose tracks Power of Love and Back in Time feature in the first movie, joined the stars on the red carpet too.
Back to the Future the Musical’s London and New York productions and North American tour can be booked here.
