Showcasing the culture in the iconic '50s and '80s, Back To The Future was a popular science fiction movie when it was was shown in movie houses. The film, though heavily focused on the future, was seamlessly able to blend the contrasting then-present and then-past lifestyles while still remaining inventive with its sci-fi concept and including features of then-impossible concepts.
This creative narrative allowed the creators, Gale and Zemeckis, to not only build on the first movie and stretch it into a three-part series of movies, but also significantly widen the number of viewers of this beloved story to another type of fan base – theater viewers. The suggestion for a live version was raised to Robert in '05, and after extensive development, Zemeckis and Gale were finally poised to release The stage adaptation of Back To The Future after more than a decade.
As one of the most technology-reliant additions to today's global stage, the stage adaptation had the prerogative to implement tweaks that would fit the current times better and also make the most out of the available technology, that at the time of Back To The Future was unheard of.

With actual actors, props, and organic viewer responses, the production's connection to its audience in each showing is always the most authentic possible. The tone of the show is also modified slightly; since the musical is now in this decade, it leans towards highlighting and embracing the future in place of remembering nostalgia.
