Moulin Rouge was recommended by my niece, raving that it would be an experience not to miss. On my first visit to the UK, I saw so many monumental sights, however the highlight for me was my immersion one Thursday afternoon in the extraordinary performances on the Moulin Rouge stage. Fabulous singing and dancer from the entire cast. If you have a chance to be in London, the historic sites are breathtaking, but Moulin Rouge is theater at its best. Bravo!

It was really special to be in the West End, soaking up the atmosphere and sharing the experience with my daughter for her 13th birthday. Seeing Moulin Rouge was a brilliant introduction to musical theatre. The songs, the performances, and the set were all fantastic. What I loved most was watching her get completely drawn in, just like I did at her age. It felt like passing on something I’ve always loved, and it made the evening feel even more meaningful.

Sets were incredible. The voice were stupendous. The acting was off the chart wonderful. Pure acting and singing talent. We sat in royal balcony and the view was fantastic. We look forward to returning to London and seeing another production at the Piccadilly Theatre. (One recommendation would be to include on the website some recommended parking garages for those of us coming from out of town in vehicles.) love love loved it!!!

    The story

    At the heart of Moulin Rouge! The Musical is Christian, a young writer who falls in love with Satine, the star of the Moulin Rouge cabaret. As Christian looks back on their whirlwind romance, he pens a moving tribute to their love, a journey filled with beauty, heartbreak, joy, and sacrifice. Through humour, music, and poignant emotion, the story celebrates truth, freedom, and above all, love.

    Incredible performance by the cast. Very enjoyable second half. The first half was ruined by two men who were intoxicated. They spent 40 mins talking, shouting, filming, and being obnoxious. They should have been removed after third warning. It was an absolute disgrace people were allowed to come into the theatre 45 minutes into the performance. We all had to move etc. So disrespectful to the actors.

    This musical is breathtaking. The sets and the addition of very recent songs and classics to those already featured in the film are incredible. The artists are fantastic. I can't wait to go back!
