Moulin Rouge! The Musical

Welcome to Moulin Rouge! The Musical. This fantastic extravaganza of a jukebox musical is set to grace the West End's magnificent Piccadilly theatre with its extraordinary presence. Everyone who loved the 2001 musical movie is bursting with enthusiasm for this unusual musical version, which combines some of the most popular chart hits of the past 40 years or more – including loads of contemporary jewels – into a show that sees audiences singing along joyfully. The musical proved a smash in Boston, USA, then thrilled Broadway, and now it's due in theatreland. Welcome to the stage version of Baz Luhrmann’s fabulous Academy Award-winning musical movie, which brings to life the sweeping sophistication of late 1800s Paris and reveals the goings-on at the world's most infamous dance hall, the Moulin Rouge itself.

You're going to adore the sweet, funny, intense story of the ambitious yet lovesick young English composer Christian and the object of his desires, the beautiful chanteuse and Can-Can dancer Satine whose troubled love story unfolds against a backdrop of Parisian sophistication. But the music is the biggest star of the show, a dazzling compendium of more than sixty massive chart hits from people like Whitney Houston, Sting, Gnarles Barkley, Edith Piaf, The White Stripes, The Eurythmics, Lady Gaga and more. You'll sing along to Because We Can by Fatboy Slim, Hips Don’t Lie by Shakira, So Fresh, So Clean by OutKast, Money by The Trashmen, and a host more songs, all cleverly combined to drive this exceptional story along. It's big, it's beautiful, and it's wonderfully romantic!

Fantastic Evening
Throughly enjoyable show. Very clever how the lyrics were sourced. Very Queen, ABBA etc. Great evening.
John, 18 May 2023
Bad Seats
Because I had a large man sitting in front of me it was uncomfortable to watch properly as the seats are way too close and straight ahead of each other.
Mervat, 17 May 2023
Amazing
Fantastic from start to finish
Tracy, 13 May 2023
Worth seeing
The show was very enjoyable from start to finish cannot praise it highly enough. It was funny in parts, emotional and the music was great. Well worth seeing. However I do not think it is suitable for children.
Carol, 11 May 2023

Jacqueline, 07 May 2023
Worth it.
the music is updated with recent songs and still very good. the sets were amazing and Christian gave us goosebumps! worth every pound!
Suraidah, 06 May 2023
Costumes and ladies immodest. Not for youth.
I thought everything was excellent except for the ladies were way under dressed. Their dance positions very revealing.vthere is no need for that, really.
Teri, 05 May 2023
Worldclass !
Absolutely Worldclass !

Alisa, 27 Apr 2023
Fantastic!
Great music! Great arrangement! Great atmosphere! No wonder it was packed!
David, 25 Apr 2023
Outstanding
After a disappointing start due to a technical problem the show commenced with probably the most spectacular starting sequence I have seen. Costumes and production is excellent, gives a real decadent feel at times with a story that runs at pace with familiar music interwoven throughout. Prepare to enjoy the finale on your feet. Would recommend a night at the Moulin Rouge to all!
Russell, 24 Apr 2023
Spectacular, saucy, sincere and fun 🤩
Brilliant cast! Particularly loved Jamie Muscato as Christian and Ian Carlyle as Toulouse-Lautrec - both had such wonderful voices. The fabulous burlesque costumes suited the cast and they all looked hot! I’d say it’s not really suitable for children or younger teens as the opening is very overtly sexy. I loved the show - it was engaging, beautifully acted and sung - a stunning and spectacular production.
Tara, 14 Apr 2023
Absolutely stunning
Great seats, great venue & it was a stunningly brilliant, vibrant, rollercoaster of an amazingly great show! We are definitely going to come back!
Rupert, 12 Apr 2023
Amazing from start to finish
Absolutely loved the whole thing, fabulous set, acting, singing and story. An amazing afternoon spent
RACHAEL, 08 Apr 2023
Superb musical!
Probably the best musical I’ve seen - & I’ve seen quite a few! Stunning costumes & scenery - especially the Eiffel Tower piece & the high ribbon acrobatics! Superb songs & dancing from start to finish & most definitely a star in Jamie Muscato playing Christian with a phenomenal voice !
Ann, 08 Apr 2023
A great feel good show
Full of fun and colour. Super set. Fabulous singing and tunes we all know and love. Great music. I would have loved to see the band but they were hidden away. We sat in the Royal Circle, centre row D and we had an excellent view. In our row we were able to take a drink from the bar, in a glass rather than a plastic one! We loved that!! I so enjoyed having nothing to think about but be absorbed by the sheer feel good factor and spectacle of the show.
Helen, 07 Apr 2023
spectacular
fast moving feast for the eyes and ears.grand circle seats have a good view but limited legroom for taller people.Overall a great night out
Julie, 06 Apr 2023
music/dance/sets
it's a slow build up 10 mins before show starts cast members slow walk around around stage showing jaw dropping figures/costumes I wasn't really into the story line but the stage sets / dancing to each song STUNNING
david, 01 Apr 2023
Words aren’t enough to describe how utterly mesmerizing this was
I wish I could describe in words how utterly mesmerizing this was. I’ve been to many shows around the world, concerts with the latest tech… I am astounded by such experience. Everyone needs to see this beauty. I’ve never thought a show can be a million times better than the movie in every aspect. The music, the lightning, the acting, EVERYTHING. I almost cried like 10 times of how the music moved me. I will be coming back again. This is the peak of human performance.
Aaron, 25 Mar 2023
Amazing
Love every moment great madh ups of classic songs with a twist. Set and costumes were out of this world, so much attention detail.
Shirley, 23 Mar 2023
Vibrant! Was 'evacuating' the theatre at end genuine??
The show was great. What happened afterwards, not so much. It was a matinee performance. I had not used to ladies during the interval, and was counting on doing so at the end, but suddenly once the show was finished,they "evacuated" the theatre. We felt sure it was because there was going to be an evening performance and they just wanted everyone out. I was prevented from using the loo and there was an argument with a front of house member, which got very out of hand. I would love to know whether this was a real emergency. I think not. Does it happen every matinee?
Julia, 23 Mar 2023
Fabulous show!
Moulin Rouge us sure to appeal to everybody. It's highly charged with fabulous singing and dance routines with just enough romantic love songs to tug at the heart strings. I loved all the songs chosen. The acting was superb!
Julie, 22 Mar 2023
Fun.. A must see.
A great show. Funny, great music, great acting, made a great night out.

Geraldine, 17 Mar 2023
Very well staged
Great ambience to the theatre and a mesmerising start. Well sung and acted gave the story a lot of engagement with the audience. A sad ending but the encore means you leave with a high and with a great audience buzz!

The whole show is amazing - the set, the lighting, the costumes and the music. A modern twist with the songs which was great.
Joanne, 22 Feb 2023
Vibrant, stylish performance to
Enjoyed the show. Lead male and female singers were excellent. Only 1 complaint: we bought 2 glasses of Chardonnay in the bar but they weren’t very nice.
Kieran, 21 Feb 2023

Judith, 18 Feb 2023

Brille
Everything lived up to expectation everything about the show was first class.....take your own bottle of water it's £3 at the bar
Alan, 06 Feb 2023
Spectactular
The show and the theming of the theatre were both spectacular. The technical quality was the same and the performances and energy from all the actors was first-class. It was evident that the entire cast were totally committed to their roles. Describing the show to my daughter easily convinced her to book when next in London.
Trevor, 05 Feb 2023
Clever. Exciting. Must See
So exciting - it’s was busy, loud, fun, clever! The traditional story was there but bolstered with modern songs and lots of sass!
Melissa, 02 Feb 2023

Maria, 13 Jan 2023
Fun
Overall Excellent.The love story acting part between Christian and Satin could have been in my view more intense.However, overall a great show ! Loved it.
Michele, 10 Jan 2023
Colourful!
Spectacular! I very much enjoyed the show,and would strongly recommend it. Costumes and sets were 'out of this world!' I volunteer in an Off West End Theatre as a Costume Designer, and appreciate all the very hard work that goes into a production.
Lynda, 08 Jan 2023
Full of energy..amazing.
Amazing and full of Energy
Rebecca, 07 Jan 2023
beautifully done,
Wonderful show, spectacular and exceeded my expectations, the set was amazing
Dina, 07 Jan 2023
Great entertainment, with just a tad missing
This story and the music were amazing. It veers from the movie a bit, but stays mostly true. It’s missing a few things. First, they don’t include the Show Must Go On and also Fly Away which were wonderful numbers in the movie. Second, and more importantly, the main characters lack any chemistry. They both have lovely voices and we enjoyed listening to them song, but there was very little feeling or emotion like Nicole Kidman and Ewan shared. Christian had a wonderful voice and the right look, but his acting was stiff and lacked romance and intimacy to help build the story. Still, we LOVED the show as the ensemble cast and musical numbers were outstanding.
Michael, 04 Jan 2023
Grand circle
Really enjoyed this show. The seats were well positioned, although there's very little leg room so did feel a little cramped.
Peter, 02 Jan 2023
Excellent entertainment
It was one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time. This was a 60th celebration birthday, which has made the whole event more memorable. The choreography, stage set, music experience was just fabulous. One only wish there was more can can dancing.

The best show I’ve ever seen
This is my all time favorite show, it’s got everything for everyone!
Amanda, 10 Dec 2022
Seats v performance
The show itself was good. Basic plot but good never the less. Acting was good and the staging was very good! Staging and costumes encapsulated Moulin Rouge. The quality of the seats however was awful. Not the position, just the quality. Not comfortable at all for a 2 hour performance and it took the edge off what was a good show. Bar staff very helpful and friendly and half fine ore ordered drinks were a massive win!
Chris, 10 Dec 2022
Colourful, great music and dancing
Fantastic show. I had all the time goosebumps. How smoothly they changed to an other song and so energy dancing. I came from Finland to see this show and it was worth it.
Riitta, 06 Dec 2022
Bedazzled, from start to laat second
This is the most enchanting, bedazzling, energetic and funny musical we have ever seen! Also for my husband and son who normally are not big musical fans. The actors, the music, the dancing, all was done with an extreme level of joy, beauty and quality. Wow, just wow!
Irene, 03 Dec 2022
Viby, energetic, funtastic!
A must do experience in magical London. From start to finish, the cast were knock out!

Uplifting show

What an experience!
Simply a genius production, what a fantastic show! I loved everything about it!!
Emma, 02 Dec 2022
Fantasy show
When you see moulin rouge; what a dhow and quite unexpected; it’s probably not suitable for children under 12 as it is a little risqué but that aside the show was great; dancing, music, acting, lights: highly recommend;
Chris, 01 Dec 2022
Fantastic
The show was truly amazing Never been to a show before Would definitely recommend Everything was awesome
caroline, 30 Nov 2022
Shame about the toilets
Good show shame about the huge qué for the ladies toilets and the number of people getting up and down during the performance
anne., 30 Nov 2022
Amazing, I want more!
Best musical in London. Full of life, amazing stage.
Julie-Anne, 30 Nov 2022
Birthday treat
Absolutely loved it and everything thing was stunning including the costumes, acting and vocals too. Loved the little titbits of comedy thrown in as well! Only problem which was nothing to do with the show, was that we had two drunk ladies sitting behind us who constantly sang very loudly all the way thru the show. After being asked constantly to stop as they were spoiling everyone’s experience and the atmosphere they sadly continued, I think the staff should have been firmer and asked them to leave if after telling them to stop about six times they just carried on and left us very frustrated!
mark, 30 Nov 2022
Fantastic Entertainment
Great music, well put together lyrics and a very compelling watch, thoroughly recommend it to one and all
Paul, 27 Nov 2022

Arrive a little early as cast appear 15 minutes before the start. The set and costumes are stunning. A quality cast with a high energy performance.
Karen, 17 Nov 2022

Really good show. Will surpass your expectations.
JODY, 15 Nov 2022
Fantastic show
Just generally a very good performance by everyone concerned
Mark, 15 Nov 2022
Brilliant creative show
Show and view of stage sitting near back was still good. The only thing we found uncomfortable was the seats
Deanna, 10 Nov 2022
Brilliant
Good story line. Great acting singing and amazing dancing. Highly recommend it but notfor kids.
Indra, 09 Nov 2022
Great dancing
I really enjoyed the dancing and the costumes, the story was a bit flimsy but hey!!! The most distracting thing was all the moving about for drinks by staff and audience especially in these little seats - I’m not very big but boy are they uncomfortable!! I really feel people can wait for the interval , it was really annoying. But all in all , it was most enjoyable.
Marion, 05 Nov 2022
Superb
I am a musician so the club values are my own. I live for the group of people that I travel with. We are a family of misfits who have a special bond. For me the show was special. But I recommend the show to anyone .
Errol, 04 Nov 2022
Lavish and beautiful
I really enjoyed myself, loved the costumes and the vocals of the performers were fantastic. The stage was a feast for eyes and the show itself was beautiful. There were some rowdy women singing along causing disturbance, but luckily they got escorted out by the members off staff, for which I would like to say thank you! I really appreciated the quick reaction to the situation and dealing with it professionally. People around me were nodding their heads with approval.
Zuzanna, 03 Nov 2022
Fabulous
Absolutely brilliant
Eileen, 02 Nov 2022
Moulin Rouge
Excellent performance, only issue I had was with the theatre. As they would not accept cash in the bar or the souvenir shop. Not everyone agrees with card only payments.
Colm, 01 Nov 2022
Electric, start to finish
Fantastic show, from start to finish. Amazing actors and great singing. Some modern tunes thrown in for a bit of a twist to the original film. A must see.
David, 30 Oct 2022
Lush,Feast for the eyes
Stunning sets, a bit raunchy but it is showgirls and prostitutes, clever use of contemporary songs which fit the storyline, pure entertainment…no complex or meaningful storyline
LINDA, 27 Oct 2022

Very nice show but the ending could be better!
