Composer, Jim Steinman has been developing the new musical for years based on the trilogy of albums: – Bat Out Of Hell, Bat Out Of Hell II: Back Into Hell and Bat Out Of Hell III: The Monster Is Loose. The original album sold over 50 million copies worldwide and included the hits You Took The Words Right Out Of My Mouth, Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad and Paradise By The Dashboard Light. The musical will use hits from all three albums including I’d Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That) from Bat Out Of Hell II.
Bat Out Of Hell will mark Steinman’s return to the London musical stage following his collaboration with Andrew Lloyd Webber on Whistle Down The Wind, for which he provided the lyrics.

Bat Out Of Hell The Musical is described as a “romantic adventure about rebellious youth and passionate love against the backdrop of a post-cataclysmic city. Following Strat, who has fallen in love with the daughter of the despotic Falco, this new musical is a high-octane rock‘n’roll adventure that tears through over 20 of Steinman songs.”
