Legendary songwriter Jim Steinman is best known for writing Meat
Loaf's biggest hits, including every track on his best-selling album
Bat Out of Hell , but for his entire life Steinman has been
working on various iterations of a musical based around his own
songs. Bat Out of Hell is the most recent and most successful of his
stage endeavours and features songs from all three Bat Out of Hell
albums, including 'You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth', 'Bat
Out of Hell', 'I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)',
'Two Out of Three Ain’t Bad', and 'It's All Coming Back to Me Now'.
After successful seasons in London and New York, the musical will have
its Australian premiere as a large-scale arena rock musical. You can
expect plenty of spectacle, with a dazzling light show, special
effects and plenty of fire. The post-apocalyptic musical is a loose
retelling of Peter Pan , set in a futuristic city which used to be
known as Manhattan. The forever young Strat, the leader of 'The Lost',
falls in love with Raven, the daughter of a tyrannical leader. Bat Out
of Hell will have its Australian premiere at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena
on June 4 before touring to Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth.
Tickets go on sale December 6 at noon.
