About Starlight Express

Starlight Express is a delight for the senses that is entirely performed on roller skates, it follows Rusty in his quest for the crown (and an auto-mobile lady). One night, as a child lays sleeping, wheels spin and toys come to life, all helped by a touch of magic.

Three different engines are set to enter a race for the crown of ‘Fastest engine in the World!’. Enemies Greaseball (a haughty diesel train), and Electra (a brand-new electric engine poke jabs at Rusty, but with the guidance of the ‘Starlight Express’ legend, Rusty learns that he could triumph all along, all he needed was meet the victor within.

It’s worth the applause

Starlight Express thundered across the finish line with 7 incredible wins at the 25th Annual WhatsOnStage Awards, making it the most awarded show in 2025!

The production won Best Costume Design at the 2025 Olivier Awards

Starlight Express holds the Guinness World Record for most visitors to a musical in a single theatre, with over 19 million people welcomed to the Starlight Express Theater in Bochum
