Moulin Rouge! The Musical in London
Moulin Rouge the Musical – A magical jukebox musical!
The cabaret venue Moulin Rouge in Paris has a long history of sauciness and fun, home to the infamous Can-Can dance. The 2001 movie of the same name transformed the fun into a dazzling musical with romance at its heart. It was a smash hit. Now it's on stage, fresh from Broadway, and it's set to delight West End audiences with colour, action, light, dance, song and - of course – true love. It's brilliant.
The Story of Moulin Rouge the Musical
The original Moulin Rouge, AKA 'Red Mill' burned to the ground in 1915, having been founded in 1889 by Charles Zidler and Joseph Oller, owners of the infamous Paris Olympia. The venue was on the doorstep of Montmartre in Paris, in the district of Pigalle, famed for the scarlet windmill on its roof. It was the birthplace of the modern Can-Can, originally danced by the prostitutes who worked out of the site. It soon became a form of entertainment in its own right and inspired cabarets to pop up all over Europe. These days the Moulin Rouge is a tourist attraction providing dance entertainment to visitors, but examine the décor and you'll see it still reflects the romance of fin de siècle France.
The scene is Paris in 1899. A young Englishman falls for the lovely Satine, a singer at the Moulin Rouge. But the manager of the venue has promised Satine to a wealthy Duke, as a reward for paying the costs of his latest stage production. The lovers have to meet in secret, but as Satine's wedding to the Duke approaches she hides a fatal secret from both men.
About Moulin Rouge the Musical
Moulin Rouge! The Musical is a jukebox musical. The book is by John Logan and the show's based on the 2001 movie, which was directed by Baz Luhrmann, written by Luhrmann and Craig Pearce. The musical premiered in summer 2018 in Boston, USA, and in 2019 it transferred to Broadway. Now it's over here.
The characters include Arabia, The Duke, Christian, Nini, Satine, La Chocolat, Toulouse-Lautrec, Babydoll, Santiago, Harold Zidler and more, and the show tunes are absolutely gorgeous. You'll find yourself swaying in your seat to delights like Welcome to the Moulin Rouge, Bohemian Idea, Satine's Entrance, Dancing with the 'Duke', In the Elephant and many more, all containing wonderful references to modern chart stoppers that you'll recognise in an instant, and can sing along to.
If you're one of the few musical fans who hasn't seen the 2001 film yet, shelve that idea for now and come see the stage musical first. It will blow your mind in the most wonderful way and you'll leave feeling buoyed up, inspired and charmed by the classic tale of two young lovers whose very different worlds collide. Christian is a penniless writer from England who adores the ideals of the Bohemians. Satine is a dancer who dreams of becoming a famous actress. Together they make sparks fly. It's a dazzler... come and see it!

With pyrotechnics, a looming elephant, scenery to die for and a cast with energy to burn, this revival only falters when it tries to update the tunes
The spectacular, Tony-winning adaptation of Baz Luhrmann's much-loved film is short on plot but more than makes up for it in entertainment

the actors, the costumes, and the story, do not correspond to the time. poor coregraphy, the dancers are non-Sicronized, the dancers, look like nothing, they are vulgar. Toulouse Lautrec and Satine are not African. only the title resembles the Moulin Rouge. very bad adaptation, to be avoided

I wholeheartedly recommend the show. The actors delivered outstanding performances showcasing their remarkable talent. The music was a delight featuring familiar tunes that I could sing along to. The storyline was heartwarming and kept us engrossed from start to finish. My only minor inconvenience was that my view was obstructed by the person in front of me despite having a good seat close to the stage. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the exceptional performance.

So glad to finally see this show and it did not disappoint. Theatre was beautifully dressed - all the walls covered in velvet, the little red windmill twirling away in one corner and the blue elephant in the other corner. Chandeliers everywhere and lights covering everything. Cast were amazing, lots of popular songs (some regrettably very brief as there was so many to cram in). And of course a tear jerker ending. Magnificent!

An evocative recreation of nineteenth century Paris nightlife with a modern twist (not suitable for young children). All the colour and decadence of a Toulouse Lautrec poster set to rock music which will be recognisable to a twenty first century audience. Fabulous!

Moulin is a very rich production, despite its poor story. You will watch wonderful costumes, set and lighting. Actors however need more strength. They seem very far from their roles and except for the main actress and the Argentinian guy, all might need more rehearsing.

It was easy to understand all the actors when they "only" spoke, rather than sang. The costumes and the production were top-notch, could hardly have been any better. The music is also excellent, and - although largely comprising non-original songs ( i.e. well-known "standards" ) - the songs are very cleverly intertwined into the story, and employed almost perfectly. The choreography was also almost perfect, a very impressive show indeed !

The music/song replacements left us longing for more of the original stuff. The emotions during the original songs were incomparable. Pop songs in a musical like Moulin Rouge were not successful to satisfy our expectations. On the other hand, the set, the stage, the costumes, the acting and musicality were excellent.

Great show! Very colourful - musicality excellent! Second half a little weaker than the first but very still good. Could have ended with a much stronger final show rather than losing the lead singer to consumption at the last minute!! One minor point…. when will producers recognise that volume doesn’t always mean impact. At times it peaked at over 95 db… Why? It’s not comfortable; it’s not safe and it’s not necessary. Just tone it down a little bit and make it bearable - it’s not a rock concert! But…. A great show.
