Baz Luhrmann's Moulin Rouge! is cemented into the world-wide canon of iconic movies. With a glittering cast featuring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, and a set which would astound the most cynical viewer it's no wonder that Moulin Rouge! went on to be one of the most award-nominated movies of all time.

Moulin Rouge's success certainly cemented Luhrmann's stake as a global movie icon.

The Story

The year is 1900, and Christian, a young poet and talented writer, has come to Paris to pursue a career and become a member of the Bohemian movement. Christian ends up falling hopelessly in love with Satine, the star of the famous Moulin Rouge. However, Satine has already been promised to the unscrupulous Duke. A love triangle ensues. As Christian and Satine try to stay together against all odds, they are led down a dark and dangerous path, but Satine is holding a terrible secret of her own...

Overall a tremendous show!!

The stage and lighting was that of a major production. The amalgamation of modern pop culture songs to tell the story was brilliant. Choreography was strong, but perhaps some room for improvement. Citizens Bank Opera House venue is top notch. And my date made it a perfect night! ... Read more

Moulin Rouge

This was one of the best musical productions I have seen in years. I have been a New Yorker my entire life, and have frequented Broadway. This was full of so much talent, such an energetic production, I felt as if I was sitting in a Broadway theatre. It blew me away! The cleaver intertwined songs, the voices, the dancing, it’s a winner and not to be missed! Loved it! ... Read more

What would there be to say negative?

My significant other picked this as a "date night." Wouldn't have been my first or top ten choice. After seeing the energy on stage, the work that everyone must put into a show like this, how could I not say that I was pleasantly suprised. Very Upbeat, a great mix of current and past songs from countless artists. More of a watch sporting events guy, but have to say it kept my attention and I sure have a very high level of respect to the entire cast and crew! Well Done! ... Read more
