What made me enjoy the show the most was the set and the costumes, I was CONSTANTLY dazzled by the choreography and the way they used the space for their performances. Personally, jukebox musicals like this aren’t necessarily my thing. Sure it was fun recognising songs, but having them transposed into the musical genre is not my cup of tea. Nor was the story, I was never really a fan of the movie but I think they converted it well, I preferred this show a lot more than the movie. Despite all my complaints, I don’t regret seeing it. Im glad I finally got to experience the massive elephant and excess of redRead more →

Positives: the set and costumes are amazing, choreography excellent, Karen Olivo’s Satine has some serious pipes and Harold Ziegler/The Duke are pretty solid. Negatives: far too many song choices and I think the main problem was that the show doesn’t know what tone it wants. It does its best but too preoccupied with fitting all the songs. Don’t be dissuaded, it’s really fun to watch, an overstimulating spectacle & everyone was clearly working really hard. It just lacked the heart of the film, for me, but that doesn’t have to matter if you just want a show because boy oh boy what a show you’ll get 🐘Read more →

The Piccadilly Theatre’s auditorium is bedecked in red decor and lighting as befits such a venue and the stage sets with their constantly moving façades and even more colourful costumes, maintain a dizzying visual spectacle from the start.
If you’re looking for a thoughtful meditation on the arts, this won’t be the show for you. The dance numbers barely finish before another kicks-off and the comedy and villainy rarely rise above slapstick and pastiche. One thing is certain though — as long as the coach parties keep coming, the cast will give their all to ensure their punters have a good time.Read more →
We could have done with a bit more rounge but as a whole the show was surely spectacular spectacular. All the cast gave it their all and my did it show all the details were amazing adding modern songs to this musical worked a treat. I love the fact they did a whole circle to show the Christian wrote the story so his love for Santine could live on forever and never stop. I loved the details that sparkled on all the dress the atmosphere was so intriguing that
i felt drawn in and apart of the moulin roungeRead more →

Utterly over the over the over the top, if that's what you're looking for, that's exactly what you'll get. Unfortunately a little too much juke box theatre for my liking, you're bombarded from outset with every pop hit from the last 60 years, there's over 70 songs crammed into this spectacular show.. the stage craft is sublime as are the faultless performances, but it left wanting some actual content over style..Read more →

As a production, it’s spectacular - the staging, set, costumes, lighting, all on point and feels immersive. They really lean in to being a juke box musical and audience was laughing along with song choices.
There were a few minor moments where I felt the dialogue wasn’t as strong as the musical numbers or the accents didn’t fit especially when changing Ron speech to song, but overall a fantastic show and time.Read more →

I rated Moulin Rouge! The Musical a full 5/5 and it absolutely deserves it. From the moment the curtains rose, I was completely swept away by the energy and colour of the production.
The set design was jaw dropping every detail of the Moulin Rouge club came to life with dazzling lights and rich textures. The costumes were a visual feast, capturing both the glamour and grit of the story’s setting.Read more →

High in color. The Director managed to create a show that is inspired from the movie but well refreshed with recent adaptations and songs. The performers, most particularly the dancers are high energy and excellent. Fully aligned with the Moulin Rouge spectacular setting. Would recommend. Only slight negative for me was the singing of Christian which did not convince me. Maybe an off night.Read more →

My favorite musical! I see it every time I visit London from the States. See it from the Dress Circle or the Stalls- the Can Can seats are too close. Every cast I see is excellent. The producers keep this production in tip top shape, investing in top talent and designers. Go see it because you Can Can Can!Read more →
