GREAT SCOTT! Back to the Future: The Musical bring out the hits | BGT 2022

[@ianjonas7380]

The musical is a real treat. It mixes 50s, 80s and futuristic themes really well and the actors are so well cast you are just drawn into the whole experience.

[@karinaproctor6450]

The musical was fantastic, the way they made the car look on stage doing 88mph was insane... the actors are all brilliant!!! Don't judge by this performance.

[@c.greystone9825]

Must see it then. Thanks for the comment.

[@atamagashock]

Hmmm, I guess I watched something different

[@LUCKO2022]

No, sorry but this sucks. Sorry. You can't replace Christopher Lloyd or Micheal J Fox. It just doesn't work. The whole "you built a time machine out of a DeLorean" line already told me enough. This guy just doesn't have the comedic timing Mike has. He just rattles the line off with no feeling, no pause or anything. Sorry BUT NO.

[@karinaproctor6450]

@@LUCKO2022 it's not about "replacing anybody", I agree nobody can replace the real actors... these people aren't trying to do that. Plus, performances change slightly each time, and as someone else has pretty much said, the BGT stage is not for this type of performance... The musicals main star of the show is the DeLorean... But, each to their own opinion.

[@larrainefarmer7384]

I’ve also seen the stage show and it is one of the best musicals I’ve seen. I didn’t think it would transfer well from film to the stage but this is so much better than the film! I’d be happy to see it again and again which is unusual for me. Go and see it yourself, you will be immersed in the journey.

[@chrismurphy9613]

Seem the show 13 times now, it’s the best thing have ever seen in the West end. It’s my fav film and did wonder would it work on stage but from the moment you enter the theatre the detail and effort that has gone in, the amazing cast. Musicians and effects are mind blowing. And Roger Bart is brilliant as Doc Brown. If you like the films you will love it 👍⚡️

[@elaineroom6358]

Without a doubt a brilliant musical. I would definitely see it again.

[@daveatron_]

Saw this musical for the third time last night, the night after they performed this! Roger Bart and olly dobson are just so perfect as these characters, I could watch them forever

[@Herries2010]

Best show I’ve seen in my 39 year old life. Saw it in London last month. It is truly mind blowing when you’re in that theatre. Fantastic music, great actors, and downright hilarious. The special effects on stage were incredible!

[@MinxyMoo]

The musical is awesome. Seen it twice and planning on going again. Don’t know why people dissed this so much either.

[@Show_Guide]

They died it becasienthe sound was awful. You've seen it live (I have 25 times now) and the sound in the theatre is absolutely amazing - yet on BGT their sound people got it all wrong and it sounded bad.

[@KT926]

I really wish I could have seen this whole show, I've seen the full performance of Power of love and it blew my mind. It's really awesome to see Roger Bart (singing voice of Hercules) back performing again

[@humanity9158]

Woow!!! standing Ovation for this Act..taking us to time travel...I loved it...the Choreography!!the Musicals....ooh dear...those times in the world were Beautiful.

[@BDog54]

Honestly, I know some people might have reservations after this live tv performance to want to go and see it live, but please don't decide off this performance alone. I'll admit that watching earlier tv performances didn't convince me either to see it. But I am SO glad I did, because live in the West End, it is such a fantastic, one of a kind show. The special effects, the performances (especially Hugh Coles as George Mcfly, the absolute spit of Crispin Glover in mannerisms and voice), the live score, the storytelling, it just brought back the magic of why I love the BTTF trilogy. It has had SO many good reviews, more than a lot of musicals that have come out in recent years. It has also won the Laurence Olivier Award for best new musical 2022, so the industry clearly recognises the quality. PLEASE go see it, you won't regret it :)

Can we just make a rule where people aren't allowed to clap DURING numbers unless asked to? It's very obvious that everyone's terrible out of time clapping was distracting Roger and that he couldn't hear the song very well. I get that their intentions were good but you don't want to distract the performer when they are probably already nervous about performing live to a few million more people than he's used to. Save the clapping for after the song!

[@timsamanthony]

Saw this a few weeks ago in London and it is one of my favourite musicals that I have ever seen in the West End. I recommend this show to everyone!

This musical is amazing. I'm hoping to go again soon. I feel like the context was lost a little bit. People who haven't seen it might miss the humour and personality of the doc!

[@rebeccamace3140]

Please don't judge the musical by this performance. I think they definitely had sound issues as the backing track seemed so quiet and none existent in parts and I also felt like he was holding back in his performance which could have been due to having problems with his ear piece or something. The actual musical is brilliant and way better than what this shows.

[@LUCKO2022]

I will judge it. You CAN'T replace Micheal and Chris. It is a impossibility. It just doesn't work. Like replacing Ford as Solo, like replacing Hamill as Luke Skywalker, like replacing Robert Downey Jr as Iron Man. It just does not work. Sorry but I won't accept this. I will criticize it because it sucks.

[@TheBeluga2805]

I haven’t even seen the BTTF musical, but I get the sense that “It Works” is not among the most memorable scenes from the show. As a musical theatre fan I think for a TV performance like this, lots of musicals tend to reserve the “meat” of the show and instead put on the scene where lots of cast members appear and sing & dance. I think that’s fine for most musicals, to leave the impression that they are entertaining. But in the case of BTTF the musical, that’s not enough. What people are really looking for is whether the musical, especially the actors for Marty and Doc, measures up to the original movies IMO. I love BTTF but it’s highly unlikely I’ll ever get to see the show with this cast. I know it’s difficult, but I hope they’ll release something that really proves that this show successfully translates the film(s) onto stage.

[@wra0146]

Musical was good, yes, but the BTTF scenes were awful. They need to brush up on their acting as it wasn't convincing.

Oh they just happen to ALL, SIMULTANEOUSLY hit their buzzers, when Marty McFly started singing, and given the fact that he didn't sing Terribly enough to warrant all 4 buzzers at once, when they did. If anything, buzzers should've come when Doc started dancing and singing, with choreographed back up dancers. Again.....horrible

[@jackthorn007]

This wasn't one of the "talent acts" - during the live semi finals, they always have a performance from a band/singer/musical while the votes are being cast: this was one of those. So obviously the judges were told when to press their buzzers, as it wasn't someone competing in the competition, it was the cast of the West End musical "Back to the Future: The Musical". They use slots like this to promote new shows, etc... I saw the musical in London a few nights ago and it was one of the best musicals I've ever seen!
