Bat Out of Hell
Everyone's favourite crazy rocker Meat Loaf has joined forces with the songwriter who helped make him a world-class rock star, to create a long-awaited stage musical featuring a host of his best-loved tunes. The very best of all three Bat Out of Hell albums has been combined to create a musical that no serious rocker will want to miss, with a futuristic plot twisty enough to satisfy the fussiest theatregoer. Welcome to the future, where young Strat will do anything for love... including risking the wrath of Falco, the despotic leader of the dysfunctional, post-apocalyptic world.
Meat Loaf has sold more than 80 million records throughout his stellar career. Jim Steinman, who wrote the tunes, is a long-time collaborator and creative partner. Together, Meat Loaf's three legendary Bat Out of Hell albums make up one of the best-loved rock music collections on the planet. If you love rock, this one's tipped to knock your socks off, on stage in the West End in summer 2017 after a much-anticipated run in Manchester. As you can imagine, the word on the streets is tickets will disappear like magic. Don't miss out – grab yours as soon as they become available.

Once is not enough Cast,actors and musicians and the background staff amazing. Have seen the show 3 times in the last 18 montbss all in different cities. Partially driven by my (now 14) year old child. Glen has the most wonderful voice, making the lead his own and not just a tribute to meatloaf. Will not tire of this show.
Did find one of the scenes was missing which was quite disappointing

I feel that renaming it to 'The Lost' might be an option. People NOT in the know feel that it is the Meatloaf story I have seen this show over 30 times. The cast are amazing the dancing and singing is always on point. It is Romeo/Juliet/Peter Pan mix. Sloane and Falco played by the very talented Sharon Sexton and Rob Fowler got a standing ovation on Saturday for one of their songs. Never in all the years of theatre going have I seen that before. Ovations at the interval, at the end of the show, but never after one song. That is the magnitude of their performances each and every time

The Bat is Back Great to see Bat Out of Hell back in London, the music is epic, the story a little basic, but I highly recommend this musical.

Musical images brought to life This brilliant music remains in a category of its own. The genius of the production was that, if one did not know otherwise, one would have thought that the music and the lyrics had been written just for this play.

Spectacular Excellent actors, scenery was spectacular seating spacious and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful.
Robert, 16 Mar 2023
Great music, story line not so much The music in this show is obviously great show for any Meatloaf fan. However, the story line wasn't particularly strong and at times felt it was forced together just for the sake of the songs.

Antony, 04 Mar 2023
A blast from the past Terrific music performances and effects. The standing ovation was will deserved. The only draw back is the suboptimal plot that may have been conceived on the back of a cigarette packet and dialogue that creaked . Nevertheless the cast crew and musicians really rocked and it was a splendid night of nostalgia.
Robert, 03 Mar 2023
Super fantastic awesome This was a brilliant show I've seen it a few times. And every time I love it as much. Keep doing it please so I come can come again x x
Cheryl, 01 Mar 2023
Fabulous for lovers of Meatloaf's music Excellent presentation of the music. A very lightweight plot with some elements difficult to follow. The singing is amazing and the band brilliant. We Will Rock You, which is the same genre of show, has a much better plot.
Steven, 26 Feb 2023
