AMAZING

Myself and 2 friends saw this in London. It was the most amazing musical we have ever seen. All singing all dancing and also very funny and sad. Costumes were outstanding. Every single actor was out of this world. I am booking to come again as it was that good. Highly recommend you see this. Cannot put into words how fantastic this was.

SO GOOD I’VE SEEN IT TWICE

I really don’t understand why this has been panned by the critics. Moulin Rouge is one of the best musicals I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot of them!). The energy of the cast is incredible, the new songs fit in beautifully and the set and costumes are out of this world.

YOU CAN TELL EVERYBODY THIS ONES FOR YOU!

For those like me who spent most of there teenage years rewatching Baz Luhrmanns spectacular spectacular moulin rouge cinematic version on repeat this does not disappoint, though not the same version it stands alone in its brilliant adaptation. Fishnets, french kissing and fireworks is what this show is all about. Its everything your teenage dream could live up to. From the opening number to the final act the musical numbers will have you singing along and bouncing of your chair for more. Clive Carter channels the orginal Harry zidler, Jamie Bogyo and Liisi LaFontaine as the ill fated star cross lovers ooozzz sex appeal, Eli Lotauro stands strong as the Argentinean, there is nothing more pleasing than seeing the argentina tango to Roxanne come alive on stage and pack the punch thats needed. From the set to the cast its a feast for the eyes and ears

KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK

We were in the can can seats at the front and though an unconventional view, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend! We were literally in the middle of some of the amazing dance numbers and the emotiin of the story came across really well up close. I spent a lot of time with my mouth open in amazed delight.Fabulous show!

BEST SHOW EVER

Wow,wow,wow!… the best live show I have seen and the most professional, skilled, energetic and funny casts ever. I could not belt my sis and I had paid what we did for circle tickets but it was worth every penny. Wonderful singing and fab use of more recent hits. Do not miss!

RAUCOUS SISTER OF THE MOULIN MOVIE.

If you're looking for an exact replica of the movie then don't go, stay at home and watch the movie. If you want to see an adaptation very close and better than the film then you'll be in your element. The staging is true to the Moulin Rouge itself and the excitement in the theatre pre perforanmce is electric. Throughout the mash up of songs is brilliant and all actors play their part, yes I get that the love element is somewhat lacking but this is difficult to portray without the close ups of Ewan McGregor acting his desires. The new songs do well especially the Queen of the Bohemians Lady Gaga, the only issue I had was with Fireworks (did not fit) and The Only Girl (In the World) as the Duke should be more sinister and not needy and maybe 'Every Breath You Take' would have been more befitting the character. Overall, a top cast, top story, truth, beauty, freedom and love make this a Bohemian and fun night for all.
