Candlelit tribute to Meat Loaf with West End stars from 'Bat Out of Hell' and a live rock band playing his hits.
Meat Loaf by Candlelight comes to Victoria Hall on Saturday 8 May 2027. It's a tribute to Meat Loaf, performed by candlelight, with the West End cast of Bat Out of Hell taking the lead and a live rock band backing them.
If you're not familiar with the man behind the songs, Meat Loaf was born Marvin Lee Aday in Dallas, Texas, in 1947. He won a Grammy and worked across television and film, including his role as Eddie in The Rocky Horror Picture Show. This show is billed as a candlelit celebration of the rock opera god, with West End stars performing his top hits.
The set list draws from his most iconic songs: 'Anything For Love', 'Bat Out of Hell', 'Two Out of Three Ain't Bad', 'Dead Ringer for Love', 'Paradise by the Dashboard Light', and many more. The whole thing runs for two hours and thirty minutes, including an interval, so it's a proper night out rather than a quick stop.
