The Most Vocally Challenging Musical You Will Ever See

Bristol: So, have you heard about this musical called ‘Bat Out Of Hell’? It’s a total game-changer! The show kicked off its 2025 tour at the Edinburgh Playhouse and wow, did it rock the house! The audience was on their feet, giving a standing ovation. Now, it’s heading to the Bristol Hippodrome from September 1-13, and trust me, you don’t want to miss it.

The story is set in a wild, post-apocalyptic Manhattan. It’s all about two lovers, Strat and Raven, who are fighting against their families to be together. Strat leads a group of outcasts called The Lost, while Raven is the daughter of a tyrant. It’s intense and super dramatic!

And get this, the original ‘Bat Out of Hell’ album is one of the best-selling albums ever, with over 68 million copies sold! Jim Steinman, the genius behind it, even released a sequel years later that had that massive hit, “I Would Do Anything for Love.” You know the one!

For the stage version, they’ve packed in some of the best songs from the albums, like “You Took the Words Right Out of My Mouth” and “Two Out Of Three Ain’t Bad.” Plus, there’s a new song that fans haven’t heard before. How cool is that?

We got to see the show, and let me tell you, it was a blast! The music is the heart of the show, and the cast’s vocals are just mind-blowing. Each song just keeps getting better, and you can really feel the passion from the musicians and performers. It’s a rock’n’roll lover’s dream!

If you’re thinking about going, you can grab your tickets for the Bristol Hippodrome shows right now. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did!
