Back To The Future – Theatrical Production at Eccles Theater

Back To The Future The Musical, a project that was long overdue, was conceived back in 2005, when the wife of one of the creators, Robert Zemeckis, was said to be ecstatic about the idea of reviving Back To The Future on a new platform. The musical was ready to debut in the year 2015, as an allusion to the second part to Back To The Future (where the characters traveled forward in time to 2015), however the musical was postponed indefinitely and ultimately opened at the Manchester Opera House, then subsequently relocated to London’s Adelphi Theater after the COVID outbreak.

The play, besides a small number trivial changes, shows the sci-fi narrative of Marty McFly as he discovers transtemporal travel to the year 1955, where he gets forcibly stuck. Additionally, because of the flexibility of live performances, Back To The Future The Musical was allowed to take advantage of creative freedoms that immensely enhanced the show. Both optically and audibly, the film-turned-musical has unforgettable execution. The musical takes advantage of the most high-tech machinery possible in Broadway and delivers a sensory experience, with the scene construction, lighting design, sound choices, and 3D animations all complementing one another quite well. The DeLorean to be specific, (which is definitely was what the fans were waiting to see in the musical) the moment it is revealed in the first act, became an unforgettable moment that theatergoers have enthused over.

Focusing on only video design, Back To The Future The Musical also surely raises the standard. Video designer Finn Ross implements 3D animation in a skillful manner that every single background video serves as an actual and real location that sets the mood of the live constructed sets gracefully. He also mentions how in each video backdrop “There’s nothing real in there at all. Oftentimes the crew would consider actual locales, but we hoped to attain this relative nostalgic feel to match the amount of zest the musical exists on.”

This coming June’s production of Back To The Future The Musical will be performed in George S. and Dolores Dore Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City, on Wednesday 10th June 2026. Because of a very technology- loaded musical, it is without a doubt that every show's theater has to be able to handle the technical capacity of the show. With the ultimate machinery from lights to audio, as well as impeccable stage building, theatergoers are guaranteed to experience a delightful musical.
