MOULIN ROUGE! THE MUSICAL

moulin rouge in london

Moulin Rouge opened at the Piccadilly Theatre on January 20th. It is set in the Montmartre Quarter of Paris, France, during the Belle Epoque at the turn of the 20th century. The musical tells the story of Christian, a young English composer, who falls in love with cabaret actress Satine, who is the star of the Moulin Rouge. But she has been promised by the manager to a Duke in return for funding his next production. As the young lovers meet in secret, Satine's wedding day draws closer but she hides a fatal secret from both Christian and the Duke. 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 including movie favourites like “Come What May” and “Your Song,”.
