If ever an album was destined to become a rock musical then it's Bat Out Of Hell! Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf's bombastic anthems set the scene for an electrifying tale of teenage love and living the rock 'n' roll dream.

Set in the post-apocalyptic world of Obsidian, the sprawling multi-level sets are a visual feast, taking you from Raven's bedroom to the underground world of Strat and his rebellious gang of young teenagers, The Lost.

Wild-child Strat is constantly falling out with the town's tyranical leader Falco, but when he falls in love with his beautiful daughter Raven the story revs up into a Romeo & Juliet-like tale of star-crossed lovers.

Soundtrack of songs from Meat Loaf's classic album

With more than 50 million copies sold worldwide, Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf's Grammy and BRIT Award-winning Bat Out Of Hell is one of the best-selling rock albums of all-time.

A powerful eight-piece band pumps out the bombastic anthems and powerful ballads live on stage, including I'd Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That), Paradise By The Dashboard Light, Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad, Dead Ringer For Love and, of course, the iconic title track Bat Out Of Hell.

What the theatre critics say...

Independant: ★★★★★ "Loud, exhilarating and blows your socks off"; Evening Standard: ★★★★ "A jaw-dropping spectacle"; Daily Telegraph: ★★★★ "Hellishly hard to resist"; The Times: ★★★★ "A crazy wild child of a rock 'n' roll musical"; Sunday Times: ★★★★ "I can't remember when I last saw a standing ovation at the interval"
