The official behind-the-scenes companion to the stage musical adaptation of Back to the Future

Premiering at the Manchester Opera House in February 2020 to rave reviews-including a notice from the Guardian that the show "sets a new standard of spectacle," Back to the Future: The Musical brings the classic 1985 film to life on the theatrical stage. Featuring music and lyrics by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard and a book by Bob Gale (adapted from the original screenplay by Gale and Robert Zemeckis), the show stars Tony Award-winner Roger Bart as Doc Brown and Olly Dobson as Marty McFly.
             
Creating Back to the Future: The Musical offers fans of the film franchise and lovers of musical theater an engrossing and entertaining look at the birth of a new theatrical classic. With unprecedented access to cast and crew, author Michael Klatorin (Back to The Future: The Ultimate Visual History) pairs exclusive, in-depth interviews with previously unpublished photography; excerpts from Bob Gale's personal journal; and a foreword by Gale to reveal and detail the years-long process, and the creative ingenuity and technical innovation, that went into the show's West End premiere.
