Biff To The Future – Making Time Travel Great Again!
A Parody by Joseph Maudsley
Directed by Daniel Clarkson
Assembly George Square Gardens
31 July – 24 Aug 2025 | 1.30pm
‘Back To The Future’ parody set to make World Premiere at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, marking 40 years since the first film of this classic trilogy was released in 1985.
In Biff To The Future, the iconic villain of Back to the Future takes centre stage in a comedic reimagination of Marty’s time-traveling escapades, turning the celebrated cinematic trilogy on its head from the perspective of Biff, the bully audiences love to hate.
This new, heartfelt and unauthorised parody explores the highs and lows of a life chasing power, fame and fortune, reliving Biff’s encounters with Marty and the Doc across the centuries.
Biff To The Future is set to make its World Premiere at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe this year. The show was created by Joseph Maudsley and is set to be directed by double Olivier Award nominee Daniel Clarkson.
