Thou shall not lie, thou shall not cheat, but thou shall break out your best moves backstage at Back to the Future, apparently. The self-proclaimed "inventor of gay pop" and internet personality JoJo Siwa visited the Broadway musical in celebration of its one year anniversary, which just so happened to align with the final weekend of Pride Month.
While visiting with the cast and crew of the show, the former Dance Moms star was inspired to break out into her highly-memed dance routine for her controversial song "Karma." A selection of cast members joined in, as can be seen in the photos captured below.

Based on the 1985 Universal Pictures/Amblin Entertainment film about teenager Marty McFly—who is accidentally transported back to 1955 in a time-traveling DeLorean invented by Dr. Emmett Brown—the musical has a book by Bob Gale, and new music and lyrics by Alan Silvestri and Glen Ballard, with additional songs from the film, including “The Power of Love” and “Johnny B. Goode.”
Back to the Future: The Musical made its world premiere at the Manchester Opera House in March 2020. The West End production opened in London September 13, 2021, at the Adelphi Theatre (where it continues) and subsequently won the Best New Musical Olivier Award.
