Paul Dainty said, “I can’t wait to bring this new arena rock musical to Australia.  The theatre show blew audiences away in the UK, Canada and USA and given Jim Steinman’s iconic masterpiece Bat Out Of Hell is the highest selling album of all time in Australia, we know audiences here are going to love it.”

The New York Times said “When’s the last time it felt as if an entire theater were about to levitate? That experience — electrifying and giddy and guaranteed to tap into every playgoer’s inner rock god — can be had at the Jim Steinman musical Bat Out of Hell which is all but blasting an adoring audience out of their seats. Count me among the adorers.”

The three Bat Out Of Hell albums have sold 100 million copies globally. The first album, released in 1977, is one of the best-selling albums of all time internationally and in Australia is the highest selling album of all time selling 1.8m copies.  In 2003, the album was named one of “Greatest Albums of All Time” by Rolling Stone.
