BACK to the Future: The Musical has been hit with woke warnings — including one about the DeLorean hypercar’s fire trail.
Bosses warn the time-travel flaming tracks could startle or alarm audiences.
It is one of 16 snowflake alerts on the stage version of 1985 hit film.
Bosses at the Adelphi in London’s West End warn the DeLorean “leaves behind fire tracks that are alight”;; as it travels back to 1955.
It also cautions “there is a pyrotechnic spark”;; as it exits the stage.
In another scene featuring the car, audiences are told inventor Doc Brown is “sprayed loudly and powerfully”;; by CO2 jets.
Elsewhere, for the cast’s performance of song Johnny B.
Goode, bosses warn “disco lights”;; are hoisted above the stage.
There is also guidance about a “special effect scene”;; at the end as the car lets out a “loud rumbling sound effect.”;;
The theatre’s website adds: “Back to the Future contains loud sounds, strobe lights, haze, fire and pyrotechnics at certain points during the performance.”;;
Senior MP Sir Alec Shelbrooke said: “I am stunned by how ludicrous this trigger warning is.”;;
We previously reported stage versions of the Full Monty and Matilda had been slapped with similar warnings.
LW Theatres, which owns the Adelphi, was asked to comment.
