Back to the Future Comes to Broadway in 2023The 1985 movie Back to the Future was such a good time that we all forget it came out 37 years ago. It seems like just yesterday. Well, it's a story about time travel, so maybe it was just yesterday! Screenwriter Bob Gale, who wrote all three BTTF films, wrote a musical stage production of the original story, and in 2020, Back to the Future: The Musical opened at the Manchester Opera House in the UK. It closed soon after due to the pandemic. But then it re-launched in London last year, and has proven to be a hit. It's about time we Americans got to see it. Back to the Future: The Musical will open at the Winter Garden Theatre on Broadway on August 3, 2023. Previews will begin June 30. Two actors from the London production are confirmed for the American show: Roger Bart as Dr. Emmett Brown (shown above with Christopher Lloyd) and Hughes Coles as George McFly. The role of Marty McFly hasn't even been cast yet, but tickets will go on sale for the show this Friday, October 28.#BacktotheFuture #Broadway #musical #BacktotheFuturetheMusical   
Get Ready For Great British Bake Off: The MusicalAfter conquering the small screen, TV sensation Great British Bake Off is going to take to the stage next! A musical adaptation of the hit show is coming this summer.The stage adaptation will follow eight amateur bakers as they attempt to impress judges on their way to becoming the ultimate star baker. Just like the show, the musical will employ a similar successful formula that has endeared audiences since 2010 - depicting the characters’ personal lives in between all the confectionery battles. But, not to worry, it’ll still be a heartwarming and wholesome comedy.The musical will have its world premiere at the Everyman theatre in Cheltenham this summer. Award-winning duo Jake Brunger and Pippa Cleary write the score.#GreatBritishBakeOff #musical #baking
