Synopsis

2024 London Version!

A child’s train set magically comes to life and the various engines compete to become the “Fastest Engine in the World!” The underdog, Rusty the Steam train, has little chance until he is inspired by the legend of the “Starlight Express.”

He ultimately defeats his archrivals, Greaseball and Electra, before going on to win the hand of the lovely first-class coach, Pearl.

As with Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat , Andrew Lloyd Webber’s catchy score features an eclectic mix of musical styles.

Although the Tony-nominated tuner was originally staged on roller skates, schools have performed it with scooters, heelys… and simply feet!

Whichever way you choose to mount Starlight Express , this is the fastest and most dynamic musical you will ever experience, and truly is a show with something for everyone.
