Jordan Slauter
Everyone agrees :
Jordan Slauter IS Buford
'Mad Dog' Tannen - Runt!
He'll be making a 'Return to Hill Valley' to collect that 75 dollars from Doc Brown - Unless he's robbing the Pine City Stage!
Buford's grandson Biff Tannen will no doubt show up to ruin the 'Enchantment Under the Sea Experience'...
So don't make like a tree and get out of there early!
Dade Elza
Returning to Hill Valley much to everyone's delight with his excellent Marty McFly portrayal! A ‘Back to the Future’ fan himself, Dade was born in Fort Worth, TX to George and Millie Elza. He started acting as a young

himself, performing at Disneyland and other venues.
Rusty Locke
Rusty is the world’s preeminent performer of the Doc Brown character from the ‘Back to the Future’ Trilogy. ( besides Christopher Lloyd of course)! A Return to Hill Valley favorite, Rusty thrills fans with his spot-on portrayal! Rusty is a gifted actor in his own time, but swears his talents were passed down by his father, who appeared in many Westerns and other feature films.
The Hill Valley Drifters
'Cactus' Bob Cole
Christine 'Prairie Flower' Stevenson
Dave Cavanagh
with Richard Sholer
We are honored to have these masterful musicians 'Return To Hill Valley'! Their many contributions to the shared musical communities in the region are legendary. They were featured in ‘Back to the Future Part III’ during the Hill Valley Festival scene, supporting the ‘front band’ ZZ Top! When the band discovered their supporting ‘extras’ were actually skilled musicians playing their own personal instruments (not props!), they all ‘jammed’ to the thrill of cast and crew between takes! Cactus, Prairie & Dave will be joined by Richard Sholer and other friends to bring the Hill Valley Festival to life yet again!
