GREAT SCOTT! SYDNEY TO HOST BACK TO THE FUTURE: THE MUSICAL NEXT YEAR

Producers John Frost, Colin Ingram and the creators of the original film trilogy, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, have today announced that Sydney will host the Australian premiere of BACK TO THE FUTURE: The Musical, opening at the Sydney Lyric in September 2025.

Based on the Universal Pictures/Amblin Entertainment film, BACK TO THE FUTURE: The Musical has a book by Bob Gale, new music and lyrics by Emmy and Grammy Award-winning Alan Silvestri and six-time Grammy Award-winning Glen Ballard, with additional songs from the film including “The Power of Love” and “Johnny B. Goode”. Bob Gale is the co-creator and co-writer of the Back to the Future film trilogy and Alan Silvestri composed the iconic film score for the series.

The musical is based on the first film which sees rock ‘n’ roll teenager Marty McFly accidentally transported back to 1955 in a time-travelling DeLorean invented by his friend, Dr. Emmett Brown. But before he can return to 1985, Marty must make sure his high school-aged parents fall in love in order to save his own existence.

A waitlist is now open for Australian fans to sign up to be first in line for tickets via www.backtothefuturemusical.com.au
