Let's address the elephant in the room! This is a tale that you probably already know. That's maybe the first reason why you're coming to the Kennedy Center Opera House. What makes it worthwhile to watch a play when you've essentially seen the end from the beginning? It's a rhetorical question because the answer is you're interested in seeing how they handle the plot! One of the coolest things about Back To The Future - Theatrical Production is that it stays very true to the movie. At the same time, in every adaptation of this musical on Broadway on the West End or in the US Tour, the actors were given plenty of liberties to put their spin on the characters. While some of the dialogue was transferred directly from the movie, you won't see Roger Bart, who's played Doc Brown on Broadway and The West End, try to be Christopher Lloyd. The same thing applies to Marty McFly and Michael J. Fox.
You could say that's a given because this is a musical, and the stars who are playing these characters in the theater have to sing. While there's some truth to this, it's still safe to say that one of the elements to the success of the story as a musical is that it has taken up its own "soul." That's something that anyone in the seats is going to enjoy because what's going to be taking place on stage isn't just a re-make of the movie. This phenomenon is similar to the way that a musical like The Lion King has been able to distance itself from the animated film. In Back to the Future, the songs are truly maximized in the musical in a manner that the film will always fall short of.
What's the ideal spot within Kennedy Center Opera House to catch Back To The Future - Theatrical Production on Wednesday 15th July 2026? When it comes to these types of shows, you may have to fight the temptation to sit up front. Those places may lead you to end up seeing at a lot of feet while not being able to grasp the set design of the different "places" in the story. Those sets are a major part of the show that you could be missing. Now that you know this, you can hit that get tickets button and purchase the best spot in the theater!
