An intelligent, creative and delightfully slightly-raunchy show. The weaving of old and new popular songs into the writing of the show makes it surprising and fresh. The choreography is fabulous and the costumes are interesting with my favourite being the men in blazer and long tutus. I went with a friend but I'm going to visit again with my husband. It's one of the shows I'd love to see over and over again.

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.

The theater is gorgeous; it feels like you've stepped back into another era. The actors were incredible, the songs flawlessly performed, and the set design truly transports you straight to Paris. I laughed, and I was moved to tears! An unforgettable experience that I will cherish forever. I warmly recommend it to everyone!! There are even seats right on the stage to make the experience even more immersive.

It was very straightforward with tickets on the app. It was a godsend to us with being older and not very tech savvy. So simple to use and seats were perfect and cheaper than we would have been buying them in London or from the London theatre app. We will definitely use headout again for future tickets.

Good actors and set design. The experience was good, though if you're a big fan of the movie, you'll be disappointed because it isn't faithful to the film's plot. They make Satine an empowered character, mix in tons of pop songs, and cut important songs from the movie.

Indescribable, what talent on stage! Dancing, singing, acting... Incredibly beautiful costumes, gorgeous sets. Top level. We were so pleasantly surprised. We've never seen anything like this! We sat at the top, but could see everything well. Just amazing!
