It was my first time in a London theater. I certainly expected the show to be good, but what I saw exceeded my wildest imagination. The theater's interior was breathtaking, and the show featured an incredibly talented and capable cast of actors, dancers, and singers. I was able to fully enjoy the show, thanks also to the orchestra's accompaniment, which was a cornerstone of the performance. Unfortunately, taking photos wasn't allowed during the show, but that doesn't mean it won't be forever etched in my mind.

The setting was great, as were the performances. The only improvement I should have liked to see was the sound. The voices of those with accents, especially the defendant, were difficult to understand.

The momst memorable moment was without a doubt the singer. It added so much authenticity to the performance not to mention the performance of all the actors and the use of the backround cast. Absolutely amazing.

Coming originally from Thailand, where we don’t get many opportunities to see big international musicals, and now living in Germany, I was really excited to finally see Moulin Rouge in London. I’ve also been taking part in small musical productions in Berlin over the past few years, so I was especially looking forward to seeing a large-scale production. I actually travelled from Germany to London for the show, so I had high expectations, and I can honestly say it was worth the trip! The opening of the show immediately set the mood and pulled me into the story. From the moment the performance started, there was so much energy and atmosphere that I felt completely drawn into the world of Moulin Rouge. I was also lucky with my seat because I had a very good view of the stage and could see the actors’ facial expressions clearly. That made a big difference for me because I could really connect with the characters. The stage design was one of my favourite parts — it was so immersive that at times I felt like I was actually there with the characters. My favourite character was Harold. I liked how the character showed so many different sides of human nature, and I thought the actor portrayed those changes really naturally. The costumes, singing, music, dancing and stage design were all impressive, but for me, it was the combination of the small details in the acting and the way the stage brought everything to life that made the experience memorable. Definitely a special experience and one of the highlights of my London trip.

What a show!! Such a spectacle with amazing actors and dancers, sublime sets, great singing and so many songs so cleverly orchestrated. One of the best performances we have seen as you fall in love with so many of the characters. This was a thank you gift to my lovely daughter who now works for me, and was her first London work event. Plan this in to any London trip!
