Bat Out of Hell the Musical serves more as a tribute to Meat Loaf’s incredible compositions compiled in the albums “Bat Out of Hell” and “Bat Out of Hell II : Back Into Hell” than as a story with a profound plot. This does not, by any means, blunt the sheer brilliance of the performance.

Meat Loaf’s albums sold over 43 million copies worldwide, making it one of the most successful albums in history. The original score was written by Jim Steinman. He was quite well-versed in musical theatre as well and orchestrated the score for the hit musical, Dance of Vampires. 2012 Obie Award winner for Best Director, Jay Scheib, put the work of Steinman and Meat Loaf together in a fast-paced rock musical that managed to sweep audiences right off their feet with its audacious rock soundtracks. Bat Out of Hell has no shortage of honours. It was nominated for 8 Whatsonstage Awards 2017, including the Best New Musical Award.

Critics Reviews
“A jaw-dropping spectacle”
– The Standard
“Jim Steinman’s perky lyrics are often overpowered in this musical juggernaut, but his roaring choruses and fairytale plot are built for the ENO’s stag”
– The Guardian
