Secret Cinema goes Back To The Future

In pretty much the best news for film fans since Robert Zemeckis changed a fridge into a DeLorean, Secret Cinema is set to revolve their biggest production to date around Back To The Future .

Secret Cinema will build the town of Hill Valley which will allow audiences to travel back in time and become citizens of Hill Valley living between 1955 and 1985, with secret alleys and entrances in the town that will allow them to travel to 1985 and 2015.

As in previous productions such as Dirty Dancing , Grease and Top Gun – the event will follow the familiar interactive format of immersing audiences into the world of Back to the Future and Hill Valley in the first half of the evening followed by a screening of the classic 80s film alongside extra experiential surprise elements.

A Battle of the Bands contest will determine who will play on stage each night, as well as a secret headline high profile band. The famous ‘Enchantment under the Sea’ Prom dance will take place at an after party venue near the secret location.

Audience participation will feature heavily throughout each event, with audiences becoming characters inside Hill Valley, with some being thrown into a time machine and transported into another existence, and others will become part of the worlds of 1955 and 1985.

Tickets are on-sale tomorrow , and your kids will probably vanish if you don't get one.
