Howdy,
On Tuesday I had the privilege of going to Hennepin Arts' Opening Night for 'Back to the Future' The Musical at the Orpheum Theatre.
On Family Fun Twin Cities, I wrote a full review for you to read and learn about my 5 Star Ratings.
I give Back to the Future: The Musical a 3.5 star rating.
- Back to the Future was full of fun music....the show ended with 'Back in Time' and we literally all danced out of the theater.
- The actors playing Marty McFly, George McFly, and Doc were
amazing. George McFly pulled off an awkward, uncoordinated teen and caused the whole audience to crack up.
- The special effects drew me into the story. The audience traveled from Minneapolis to Hill Valley.
- I enjoyed the costumes! They went from the 80's to the 50's.
- Age Recommendation for Back to the Future: The
Musical. The Orpheum suggests this show is great for kids ages 6 and older. There is a little language and some suggestive elements--like Marty in his purple underwear (that's the worst it gets). Orpheum Theatre invites kids ages 5 and older into their shows as long as they are respectful theatre-goers.
This show runs until September 22 and is super fun. Though a little long for the younger audience members.
