(Back to the Future the Musical)

Summary of the musical Back To The Future :

Marty McFly's life isn't very fun. Her father, George, is constantly bullied by his supervisor, and her mother, Lorraine, is an overweight alcoholic. One day, Marty receives a call from his scientist friend, Dr. “Doc” Emmet Brown. He tells her to meet him at Twin Pines Mall at 1:15 a.m. Doc unveils a time machine that works from plutonium integrated into his car: the DeLorean. Marty mistakenly activates the time machine, sending him back to 1955 where he accidentally gets in the way of meeting his teenage parents. Marty must find a way to convince Doc he's from the future, reunite his parents, and ultimately return to the future.
