"This is a must for any back to the future fan. Having done everything we wanted to do on our trip to New York we left this till last and it was a very big cherry on a very big cake. From start to finish it was an absolutely brilliant show which I cant recommend highly enough."

"The special effects were state of the arts throughout the show. The cast was phenomenal and kept the audience engaged. I grew up in the 80’s. The music and script stayed true to the original movie and the 80’s epoch. I can’t say that I disliked any portion of it. It is family friendly. It is a great intro and encouragement for children who want to pursue the arts. "

"Back to the Future was an enjoyable and entertaining show. Be aware there are flashing lights and some cursing, but for the most part it was family friendly. The theater was a nice venue and our seats in the front of the balcony were very good."

"Went back to Broadway to see Back to the Future. I went for a few reasons…could get reasonably priced seats that were good seats and loved the movie, so why not check it out instead of seeing a tried and true show again like Wicked… Ended up LOVING it. Some great special effects and the cast was amazing. Exciting to be there. Only down side is the noise sound effects before the show begins. A lot of tech sounds with a ticking that gave me a bit of a headache. "

Like all great performances, it gives you a range of emotions. I was surprised at how much humor it provided, I haven't laughed out loud that much in a long time! I would highly recommend this show to anyone, but especially to anyone who is a fan of the movie. Go see it, you will not be disappointed!!"

"Since I hadn’t seen a musical in decades, it took a little for me to get into it, however the excitement and reactions of the crowd, the talent of the cast and the effects had me sold in no time. By the end I joined the cheers, clapping, standing up and dancing. Such an incredible ending, touches of humour and effects. Actors were wonderful and I kept telling ppl to go see it. Thank you!"
