Plot Summary
Remember when actors became American Presidents? When Bubble skirts and parachute pants were cool? When Atari was cutting edge technology? From the era that brought the world The Rubik's Cube, Max Headroom and The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comes this "totally awesome" musical. Join the graduating class of William Ocean High School as they live through their final senior year - as they experience the fun, the heartbreak, the loves and the loneliness of growing up...all set to the biggest hits of the 80's. Back to the 80's tells the story of the senior class of William Ocean High School that graduated in the 1980's as remembered and seen through the eyes of Corey Palmer, who is now 30-something. The then 17-year-old Corey is madly in love with his next door neighbor, Tiffany, one of the coolest girls in the school. However, she barely notices this, as she is too busy drooling over Michael, the resident jock and the hottest guy around. Michael and his friends are the kind of guys that Corey and his two best friends, Alf & Kirk, dream of being. However, while they may not be the coolest guys in school, they are still one up on Feargal, whose best friend is his computer, and who believes the crazy notion that one day CD's will replace cassette tapes. The year commences with Class President Elections: Michael steals Corey's election speech, and when he uses his ideas and promises the girls a kiss for a vote, he becomes President, with Tiffany as his Vice President. Meanwhile the teachers are having issues of their own. Mr. Cocker, after being in a relationship for two years with the apparently conservative English teacher, Miss Brannigan, woman of his dreams, has a little secret. How will he cope? Will their relationship be able to survive this hurdle? Throw in a Star Wars dream sequence, high-energy dance routines, the obligatory 80's party scene, exuberant amounts of blue eye-shadow, twenty cans of hairspray, as well as some of the most popular songs ever written, and the result is a musical that will not only delight and amuse an audience of any age, but will definitely have you humming a familiar tune all the way home!
