Why see Bat Out Of Hell?

The Olivier-Nominated Bat Must Close January 5!

Join Bat Out of Hell on Wednesday 31 October, Tuesday 27 November and Monday 31 December for a special Sing-a-Long performance! Audiences are also invited to dress up as their favourite character on 31 October and 31 December.

Crack out those leathers, this hard-rocking musical epic is coming back to London in 2018, giving you a second chance to have your mind blown by the ingenious fusion of Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman's incredible record with all the spectacle musical theatre can muster.

Previously showing at the London Coliseum and winner of the Best Musical Award at the 2017 Evening Standard Theatre Awards, this rollicking production will take up residence at The Dominion Theatre (along with og stars Andrew Polec and Christine Bennington), continuing the rock musical tradition of the venue, as set by long-time incumbent We Will Rock You.

In fact, fans of the latter will find themselves right at home in this tale of a dystopian Manhattan presided over by a Trump-like figure, Falco. At the bottom of his shimmering tower live a group called The Lost, a bunch of rock and roll rebels who stopped aging at 18. In a whirlwind of shining chrome, spray-on jeans and Doc Martens, their leader Strat falls for his enemy's daughter, the innocent Raven, begining a fantastic romance that sizzles and blooms through the unforgettable score.

So if you're looking for paradise by the theatre lights, you can't go wrong with this high-octane balls to the wall experience.

An Epic Experience

A high octane thrill ride, this epic stage adaptation of the already fairly epic album(s) is utterly irresistible.

Tonight is what it means to (pretend to) be young...

To be fair, as a massive fan of the late Jim Steinman, I knew I would love this before going. It didn't disappoint. Really well staged, great cast with some brilliant singing that was able to handle even the most demanding songs. Particular shout out to "Valkyrie" (Kellie Gnauck?) and her stunning rendition of "Objects in the Rear View Mirror". I saw Meat live when he was touring "Bat 2" and he was struggling a bit by then, so it was amazing to hear the music brought so vividly to life. The plot was secondary - basically JS's long-standing fascination with Peter Pan - but the subplot of the middle aged parents rediscovering their love and their youth while parenting a teenager frankly worked well given the demographic of the audience. ...
