Moulin Rouge! The Musical explodes Baz Luhrmann's Oscar-winning masterpiece onto the stage and invites the audience into an extraordinary setting that is a nightclub, theater and dance hall all in one. With 75 songs by 165 composers, Moulin Rouge! The Musical celebrates over 160 years of pop music history - from Offenbach to Lady Gaga - and ignites a musical firework display.
Paris 1899: A young writer falls in love with the star of the legendary nightclub Moulin Rouge. But Christian and Satine's love is put to a tragic test when the influential Duke of Monroth comes into the picture. He wants to take over the financially ailing Moulin Rouge - and with it its "sparkling diamond": Satine.
Together with club owner Harold Zidler and the most dazzling bohemians in all of Paris - the brilliant but starving artist Toulouse-Lautrec and Santiago, the city's most fiery tango dancer - Christian stages a musical spectacle to save the Moulin Rouge and fight for his love.
