Bat Out of Hell Tickets
The musical is playing at the Dominion Theatre. Tickets are available in two main areas and prices vary quite considerably.
Stalls: The stalls offer excellent views of the stage and of course, the comfort one would expect from seats of this type. Prices range from £115 in the central area where the visibility is best, to £15 in the last rows.
Circle: Don’t let them fool you, the circle at the Dominion Theatre can offer visibility and comfort just as good as anything you’ll find in the classic stalls area. As well as Premium Level 1 seats, this area also offers all the other levels, which means that prices range from £115 to just £15. (Not recommended for persons with reduced mobility)
Plot
Manhattan, 2030. In a post-apocalyptic world, Strat and the kids known as the “Lost Boys” form a band with a strange genetic modification which means that whenever they turn 18, they stay that age forever. This band of bikers lives in the abandoned tube stations of Obsidian, whose streets are controlled by Falco, a cruel multimillionaire tyrant.
We’ll also meet Raven, Falco’s young daughter who has just turned 18 and who lives under lock and key in a tower, overprotected by her father. Even though she lives in the same city as Strat, hers is a quite different reality.
Bat Out of Hell is a story of the love that grows between two very different young people; it is the story of their difficulties, their struggle against authority and their attempt to escape. It is also the story of Tink, a member of the “Lost Boys” who is secretly in love with Strat.
