Bat Out of Hell brings to life the legendary anthems of Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf, in a critically acclaimed, award-winning production that combines the magic of a musical, with the immense energy of rock 'n' roll. 

Andrew Polec plays Strat, the forever young leader of The Lost, a rebellious gang, who he falls in love with Raven (Christina Bennington), the beautiful daughter of the tyrannical ruler Falco (Bradley Dean),and his wife Sloane (vocal powerhouse and Tony Award winner Lena Hall), in post-apocalyptic Obsidian.

This show features Meat Loaf’s iconic hits including “I’d Do Anything for Love (But I Won’t Do That)”, “It’s All Coming Back to Me Now” and “Paradise by the Dashboard Light.”

“When’s the last time it felt as if an entire theatre were about to levitate? That experience – electrifying and giddy and guaranteed to tap into every playgoer’s inner rock god – can be had at the Jim Steinman musical Bat Out of Hell which is all but blasting an adoring audience out of their seats. Count me among the adorers.”
