Moulin Rouge – The Musical at Al Hirschfeld Theatre

The film, Moulin Rouge, by Baz Luhrmann received nominations at the 74th Academy Awards and grossed nearly $180 million worldwide. This instant hit musical film about romance and misfortune wasn't forgotten and is now a hit stage production performed around the world. The Broadway show took years in the making since there were merely whispers of a Broadway adaptation in 2002 and 2006.

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 story 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 agree to partner with him to get their play into production at the Moulin Rouge theater. Satine works at this theater, but it's quickly losing money 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 feelings become complex. Of course, the Duke doesn't like Satine falling for Christian and threatens that he won't invest in the theater after all, and threatens Christian's life if he continues pursuing Satine.
