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!!!

Absolutely everything from the pre show champagne to the pre show entertainment on stage to the wonderful sets and costuming to the truly quality singing and dancing to the call for donations at the end. And then photos outside in front to the big sign. It was a wonderful night and although we're from Australia, we've been to a lot of West End productions. Well done all.

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, the lighting, the corps de ballet. Very good interpretation of Ben Richards for "Sympathy for the Duke". "Backstage Romance" led by Ivan de Freitas, spectacular the whole company. The above is what I liked as isolated things; integrally the work did not manage to transmit much to me, the emotion is not on stage. This page is not designed to write reviews of plays, I had to check an option that does not correspond in order to send the review. The option to upload a photo does not appear either.

It's a classic and while the main story is the same the musical was geneously renewed with new songs. The overall performance, dancing, singing, playing is phenomenal. The theater of the theater stage is amazing with stong red colors. The seats felt a little squizzed, but not a big issue. Overall enjoyed very much and highly recommend.
