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.

I have seen Moulin Rouge on Broadway in NYC twice. This performance was just a great and entertaining! The talent was incredible, the set was well done and the venue was nice with comfortable seats. This was the first time for the other 3 people that saw this performance and they were blown away and enjoyed it! I would highly recommended this show!

Loved the pre-show as audience was arriving, there were several dancers walking slow Mo along the front sides and onto the stage to a slow jazz… Very creative and set a mood. The bright red stage setting was amazing. Loved the performance and would see it again if we weren't so far away ...in town from the states, obtained last minute tickets.

Very good adaptation. Even before it starts, you are already drawn into the show, as the dancers keep everyone entertained on stage. The first part is adapted to the theater really well; the second part a bit less so for my taste, but I still loved it. A gorgeous play and unbeatable performances.

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.

Baz Luhrmann’s cinematic world translates into a high-stakes stage production, transforming London's Piccadilly Theatre into the iconic Paris cabaret.

Winner of 10 Tony Awards and an Olivier for Costume Design, the show features over 70 pop hits from artists like Madonna and Elton John.

Witness visionary direction by Alex Timbers, a powerful script by John Logan, and Justin Levine’s masterful music supervision. Book your Moulin Rouge! The Musical London tickets now!

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.

From the moment we entered the theatre we were immersed in the atmosphere and mood of the show. Actors were slinking about the side of the stage as the audience came into the theatre, which was drenched in red decadence. Singing, dancing, acting, costumes, sets were integrated to make for an entertaining evening. Our seats were excellent as well.

Perfectly managed entering and leaving the hall, despite the full hall, bar was always available with waiting of several minutes, perfect management of the event, thank you. Performance itself was unforgetable! To see Sam Smith was my dream, and the London Coliseum was just a perfect place for this! Thank you very much!
