Marty McFly is a rock 'n' roll teenager who is accidentally transported back to 1955 in a time-traveling 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.

Theatre Review: ‘Back to the Future: The Musical’ at The Kennedy Center Opera House

8 / 10

The entire cast has developed a mastery of their roles that comes across effortlessly. Caden Brauch and Burke Swanson, as Marty and George McFly respectively, are perfect foils to the bullies portrayed by Ethan Rogers as Biff Tannen and Luke Anthony Neville as Principal Strickland. Swanson’s character who “doesn’t have a spine” excels in both acting and dancing like a flailing inflatable tube man often seen outside auto dealerships. He, along with Zan Berube as Lorraine Baines, own the nuances in their character transitions over the course of the musical and attest to their versatility. As Doc Brown, Don Stephenson excels in portraying the mad scientist archetype, except that he is genuinely likable and inspirational. His performance effectively keeps us on edge, particularly during the climactic race to the clock tower. He climbs a series of projected steps with the finesse of a video game character, and at the top, he convincingly makes us believe he is clinging to the rim for dear life.

Review: BACK TO THE FUTURE: THE MUSICAL at Opera House/Kennedy Center

7 / 10

Caden Brauch makes a sturdy Marty. He's a fine comic actor and triple threat who should just keep fine-tuning his duckwalk in order to make it really goode, if you know what I'm sayin'. Don Stephenson's Doc is sensational. He underplays like an old vaudevillian, and he has mastered the very hard art of throwing lines and bits away. (Best one: When Marty asks him who the girls are who suddenly arrive to sing and dance behind their number, Doc shrugs, "They just show up when I start singing.") He's got the three best songs in the show (Music and Lyrics by Alan Silvestri, who wrote the scores for all three BTTF films, and Glen Ballard): "It Works," (the DeLorean, of course), "21st Century," in which Doc dreams what he might see in the future--The Doctor would like that Doc dreams of The Tardis, and a lovely ballad "For the Dreamers," sung with mostly solo piano which provides some Act II auditory respite from the onslaught of the overly loud rest of the show. And Stephenson never never never pretends that he's Christopher Lloyd; Doc belongs to him, and a good time is had by all.
