That '80s Time Travel Movie: A Back to the Future Musical Parody

Overview

What if, when the DeLorean speedometer reaches 88 miles per hour, Marty McFly bursts into song? Surely every time Doc Brown exclaims "great Scott!", he should bust out some dance moves. And it's honestly just hard to believe that Biff Tannen doesn't have his own Biff bop.

In news that'll make you believe in the power of love — because it's a curious thing — some of the above might happen at the Brisbane Arts Theatre between February 11 and March 27. And if they're not part of That '80s Time Travel Movie: A Back to the Future Musical Parody, we'll choose to believe that someone travelled back and erased them from our timeline. Just look for the anyone calling themselves Calvin Klein and hanging around the clocktower.

Either way, a whole lot of singing, dancing and laughing is bound to occur when the inventive, wholly unofficial satire arrives in Brisbane — not to be confused with the official musical version, which was slated for a 2015 London premiere but hasn't yet come to fruition. And, it'll be the Australian premiere season, running Sundays to Tuesdays on alternating weeks. BYO puffy vest and pink hoverboard, obviously.
