    This February, Master Pancake plays host to the reunion of two original cast members from the Sinus Show: John Erler (the tall bald one) and Owen Egerton (the compact ginger nut), who, along with pal Joe Parsons, lampoon Back to the Future (1985), a film so iconic that for a brief period in the mid-80's it convinced people that DeLoreans, Burger King, and Huey Lewis and the News were hip. Michael J. Fox (Family Ties, Teen Wolf) plays, well, Michael J. Fox -- or Marty Mc Fly as he's called here -- who travels back in time in order to save his professorial pal 'Doc', played by Christopher Lloyd (Clue, Star Trek III). Along the way, Mc Fox ends up inventing Rock 'n Roll, changing the future, and almost dating his own mom. Oedipally complex, this movie features a brilliant performance from indie-icon Crispin Glover as Marty's exquisitely milquetoast dad, who eventually learns how to sock it to Biff. Helpful Information: All patrons must be 18 years or older or be accompanied by a parent. Children under 6 are not admitted at any time.
