Back To The Future: The Musical will only appeal to fans of the original film….so that’s pretty much everybody.
From the bar to the curtain, the Adelphi Theatre’s design sets the scene for show’s sci-fi theme. Bob Gale’s adaptation of the movie’s script is a faithful one. There are very few plot changes, and all the favourite jokes remain- Calvin Klein, Ronald Reagan, “Why don’t you make like a tree and get outta here?!”.

Elijah Ferreira and Jade Johnson play an ill-matched protagonist couple in a new post-apocalyptic musical HELP! WE ARE STILL ALIVE which opened at the intimate Seven Dials Playhouse this week. The creative enterprise largely concocted by Imogen Palmer and Tim Gilvin, sees Finn and Jass forced to stick with one another when after emerging from 2 days spent hiding from drone sounds in a mortuary freezer compartment, they discover everyone else has disappeared.

CRUISE is based on Jack Holden’s personal experiences volunteering in his youth at the London Gay Switchboard Helpline during the 1980s — and he deploys a particularly effective device to segue the audience into that hedonistic lost realm. One clumsily-handled call catapults us to Soho during its heyday and a time in which the AIDS crisis has only just begun to creep into the wider consciousness.
