The 2001 Baz Luhrmann film, Moulin Rouge received nominations at the 74th Academy Awards, grossing nearly $180 million worldwide. This beloved musical film about romance and risks wasn't forgotten and is now a hit Broadway show performed around the globe. The Broadway show took years in the making since there were merely whispers of a Broadway adaptation in 2002 and 2006. But in 2016, it was formally announced that this fan-favorite film would hit the stage. The show finally debuted in 2019 but took a year-and-a-half break starting in 2020 thanks to worldwide events, but it has been up and running since mid-2021 with great success.

The tale of American composer Christian and courtesan and showgirl Satine will melt your heart. Christian meets talented French Bohemians who want to write songs for a theatrical production and decide to partner with him to get their play into production at the Moulin Rouge theater. Satine works at this theater, but it's quickly failing and could close forever. Satine wants to save the Moulin Rouge and considers seducing a wealthy Duke who has shown interest in investing in the theater to save it. However, Satine and Christian cross paths and fall in love. Of course, the Duke doesn't like Satine falling for Christian and threatens that he won't invest in the theater after all, and poses a real threat to Christian's life if he continues pursuing Satine.

This breathtaking tale of romance and glamour will have you on the edge of your seat. You'll be swept away by these characters and the music they perform.
