Starlight express

Schrijver: Richard Stilgoe
Componist: Andrew Lloyd Webber

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” and ultimately defeats his arch-rivals “Greaseball” and ‘Electra before going on to win the hand of the lovely first class coach, Pearl.

The Definitive version of Starlight Express is now available to schools, colleges and universities. This is the version of the show that you’ll have just seen on tour in the UK which includes the new song I do and the full Megamix. The classic moments of the show still remain such as U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D., Rolling Stock, Pumping Iron and AC/DC.
With an eclectic mix of styles, the new Definitive Starlight Express, truly is a show with something for everyone.

This is the fastest and most dynamic musical you will ever experience, however you choose to perform it! The show has a rock / pop score with enormous appeal for teenagers.
