Jim Steinman’s award-winning musical Bat Out Of Hell returns to London this April, ready to rock the roof off of the Dominion Theatre.
With an epic return, they kicked off the start of their West End run with a powerful concert that showcased the stellar vocals of this tremendously talented cast. With a cast created of both old and original cast members, the extraordinary Andrew Polec and Christina Bennington opened the live show with the iconic Bat Out Of Hell.
I fell in love with the show because of how bold and daring the production is. Breaking all boundaries, the production values are out of this world, which is matched by the remarkable talent of the cast. It’s a fresh and unique musical that puts a new stamp on musical theatre.
It’s a story of a romantic adventure about rebellious youth and passionate love, set against the backdrop of a post-cataclysmic city adrift from the mainland. Strat, the forever young leader of The Lost, has fallen for Raven, daughter of Falco, the tyrannical, ruler of Obsidian.
Andrew Polec and Christina Bennington will return to lead the cast as Strat and Raven, alongside Rob Fowler as Falco, Danielle Steers as Zahara, Sharon Sexton as Sloane, Giovanni Spanó as Ledoux and Patrick Sullivan as Blake.
Other cast members returning are Emily Benjamin, Georgia Carling, Natalie Chua, Jonathan Cordin, Hannah Ducharme, Isaac Edwards, Aston Newman Hannington, Eve Norris and Courtney Stapleton.
New additions to the cast include Alex Thomas-Smith (Tink), Wayne Robinson (Jagwire), Kyle Anthony, Christopher Cameron, Rob Copeland, Collette Guitart, Eric Hallengren, Vicki Manser, Rhianne-Louise McCaulsky, Joseph Peacock, Kyle Roberts, Craig Ryder, Dawnita Smith, Julie Stark, Charlotte Anne Steen and Sam Toland.
