Starlight Express
Written for Andrew's children in 1984, Starlight Express is pure fun and the world's only musical performed entirely on roller skates. Inspired by the pleasure to be found in the Reverend Awdry's children's stories, the show tells how various trains - steam, electric and diesel - compete to couple up with carriages and see who is the best, and who will reach "The Light at the End of the Tunnel".
