Get ready to have the time of your life at Cadillac Palace in Chicago, Illinois with the "Moulin Rouge!" Broadway show. The unforgettable jukebox musical that won our hearts as a musical film in 2001 joined Broadway in 2019 and you can join the fun this spring. With modern pop hits heard on the radio and passionate love with harrowing risks, this memorable story taking place in Bohemian Paris will grab your attention and have you dancing in your chair. Whether you have been singing the soundtrack for years or have yet to meet the "Moulin Rouge!" characters, you won't want to miss this vibrant Broadway adaptation of this beautiful musical film.
This Broadway show follows the story of Christian and Satine, an American and Parisian who develop feelings for each other while working on a play to keep the Moulin Rouge theater alive. But because Satine committed to someone else and has a life-changing secret, this potential couple just doesn't seem doable. Christian is a composer hoping to make it big with musicals, while Satine is a performer and courtesan at the Moulin Rouge. The two make the perfect pair, if only they can overcome the obstacles.
This unique story takes place at the turn of the 20th century but wows the audience with current and oldies pop songs you heard on the radio. The Broadway show differs from the film as it includes new songs that have come out since the movie first debuted in 2001. You won't want to miss this Tony Award worthy musical about romance, the arts, dancing, and taking risks. See "Moulin Rouge!" this spring at Cadillac Palace on Sunday 13th April 2025 for a glitzy night you won't soon forget.
