Moulin Rouge! The Musical is one of the most spectacular shows in the West End, a lavish, immersive jukebox extravaganza based on the Baz Luhrmann film. From the moment you enter the transformed theatre, it is pure sensory spectacle.
About the show
Set in the bohemian world of the famous Parisian nightclub, the show tells a love story through a mash-up of pop anthems, staged with eye-popping sets, costumes and choreography. It is a dazzling, grown-up night out and one of the hottest tickets in town.
Where to see it and tickets
Moulin Rouge London plays at the Piccadilly Theatre in the heart of the West End. Tickets are sold through the official theatre and authorised agents; book ahead for weekends and school holidays. For the cheapest seats, see our guide to cheap theatre tickets, and make an evening of it with things to do in London at night.
Good to know
Arrive 30 minutes early, dress is smart-casual (anything goes in the West End), and most musicals run around two and a half hours with an interval. Pair it with dinner from our restaurants guides and a pre-theatre table in Covent Garden or Soho.
