Bat Boy: The Musical in concert comes to the West End’s London Palladium for one night only this October 2023.

Playing on the night of Halloween, 31 October 2023, this star-studded concert will feature Jordan Luke Gage (Bonnie and Clyde) as Edgar, Victoria Hamilton-Barritt (Cinderella, Hex) as Meredith, Trevor Dion Nicholas (Hamilton, Next To Normal) as Dr Parker, and Jodie Steele (But I’m A Cheerleader) as Shelley.

Bat Boy The Musical , which will be directed by Dean Johnson (Once), is a classic American rock horror musical about a half boy, half bat creature, and explores themes of prejudice, fear, acceptance and what it is to be ‘normal’.

The show has music and lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe (Heathers, Legally Blonde), and a book by Keythe Farley and Brian Flemming.

Bat Boy: The Musical will play the London Palladium on Tuesday 31 October 2023.

Edgar (Gage) is a half boy/half bat creature who is discovered in a cave in a rural American town. The local sheriff brings Bat Boy to the home of the town veterinarian, Dr. Parker (Nicholas), where he is eventually accepted as a member of the family by the veterinarian’s wife, Meredith (Hamilton-Barritt), and teenage daughter, Shelley (Steele). However, resentment and a dreadful secret about his shocking origins threaten to turn the town, and everyone he loves against him.

Set against a backdrop of a small town ravaged by prejudice, the dark comedy explores themes of fear, acceptance and the consequences of othering, questioning what it means to be ‘normal’.
