Activity Level: 2
Moulin Rouge! The Musical is a jukebox musical with a book by John Logan. The musical is based on the 2001 film Moulin Rouge! directed by Baz Luhrmann and written by Luhrmann and Craig Pearce.
Moulin Rouge! is set in the Montmartre Quarter of Paris, France, during the Belle Epoque at the turn of the 20th century. The musical relates the story of Christian, a young composer, who falls in love with cabaret actress Satine, who is the star of the Moulin Rouge. Like the film, the musical’s score weaves together original songs with popular music, including songs that have been written in the 17 years since the film’s premiere.
At the 74th Tony Awards, Moulin Rouge! received a total of 14 nominations and won 10 awards (the most for the evening), including Best Musical. A celebration of Truth, Beauty, Freedom and — above all — Love, MOULIN ROUGE! is more than a musical — it is a state of mind.
