Amazing singing, dancing and energy!
"I had the absolute joy of seeing Moulin Rouge! on Broadway, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment the curtain rose, the production exploded with color, movement, and emotion. The costumes were breathtaking, rich, vibrant, and meticulously designed to pull you straight into the world of the Moulin Rouge. The singing was phenomenal, with powerhouse vocals that filled the theatre and gave me chills more than once. Every performer brought nonstop energy; the choreography was electric, and the entire cast sustained an intensity that kept the audience captivated from beginning to end. I loved every moment of this experience and found myself wishing I could see it again the minute it ended. If you’re looking for a Broadway show that dazzles the senses and leaves you smiling long after the final bow, Moulin Rouge! is absolutely worth it."

What a show !!!
"There was absolutely nothing I would change about this performance. We have been to many Broadway shows and this is right up at the top of “wow” performances. Beautiful theatre, great love story, the set was dynamic, supporting cast was great and the two performers leading the show were amazing. Their voices individually and together were such a wonderful blend. It was a “real spectacular broadway show !!!!"

Spectacular Spectacular…iykyk
"This was the best show I have ever seen and I have seen several. The story line mimics the movie closely and key songs are in the musical. The musical added several updated songs, but it was so entertaining and fit the storyline perfectly. The cast was phenomenal. 10 out of 10, 5 stars, two thumbs up!!"

Freedom, Beauty, Truth and Love
"A spectacular story performed by wonderful actors and singers in a dreamlike-erotic atmosphere. It's funny, moving, even a bit politically engaged. For fans of the film, expect some changes. New quality mash-ups and a revisited story in substance. We loved it."

Fantastic!!!
"I loved how they incorporated well known songs in the performance. I loved the costumes and set. The performers were fantastic. They had unbelievably incredible singing voices. My only disappointment was that I had bought the tickets for this show on this date because Wayne Brady was supposed to be in it. I would have loved to see him but it didn't take away from the show at all."

The best show ever
"The show completely exceeded my expectations. I hadn’t heard many people around me talk about it, so I went in without expecting much—but it was absolutely incredible. First of all, the two leads were phenomenal singers. Their powerful voices drew me in from the very beginning. Even if you’re not usually a fan of musicals, you’ll enjoy this one—the show features so many familiar songs that you can’t help but get excited. The sets were stunning, every scene was visually gorgeous, and the supporting cast’s singing and dancing were top-notch. There wasn’t a single thing to criticize. If you’re in Manhattan and wondering what to see, I highly recommend Moulin Rouge!. I’d love to see it again someday—hopefully with the same amazing cast. Thank you for such a truly wonderful show! "

starving artists vs the patron
"From the moment the theatre is entered you are transported to Paris and the Moulin Rouge. The extravaganza explores the bohemian artist vs. wealthy patron tragic storyline. The themes of survival, love and art are explored with a modern twist. The show gives way to music playlists that accompany our daily lives, giving the show a gingery and enlivened experience . If you are a fan of a "dancy" show this one is stellar. While the music propels the story forward and entices a younger audience, the cabaret feel may be risqué for an audience younger than twelve. My eighteen year old daughter and I enjoyed the glam, glitter and siren song that drew us in."

Un’esperienza di cui non ti pentirai
"Se vieni a New York, tutti di dicono di guardare uno spettacolo a Broadway: io ero indecisa finché non ho visto il Moulin Rouge nel programma. È il mio film preferito e per questo ho deciso di comprare il biglietto. Ma credetemi, non so spiegarvi a parole l’esperienza che ho vissuto. Lo spettacolo è fantastico, gli attori sono bravissimi, non ho mai visto nulla di simile prima. Adesso posso dirvi che a prescindere dal tipo di spettacolo, un’esperienza a Broadway va fatta, ma ch il Moulin Rouge è un tocco in più!"

High energy & heart
"For me, there was nothing to dislike about the show. The entire cast was just so together during all of it - the high energy dance sequences, the different parts delivered by each main & adjunct character, and the tragedy in the end. Brought tears to my eyes. To my husband’s as well. Can’t wait to visit again Broadway."
