Based on the award-winning 2001 film starring Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, Moulin Rouge! The Musical follows a couple whose world is turned upside down by true love and passion in turn-of-the-century Paris. The writer Christian and the courtesan Satine fall into a forbidden backstage romance at the titular nightclub — until Christian realizes there’s more than just the villainous Duke putting a stop to their relationship.
Between 2002 and 2003, shortly after the Moulin Rouge! movie got a Best Picture Oscar nomination and two other wins, rumors started to fly about a stage adaptation. Those rumors faded, but finally proved true in 2016, when Moulin Rouge! The Musical was officially announced. Aaron Tveit and Karen Olivo led the show’s first workshop in 2017, and they went on to star in the 2018 world premiere in Boston and the 2019 Broadway premiere.
Both received Tony nominations for their performances, and Tveit and Danny Burstein (as Harold Zidler) won awards. Moulin Rouge! The Musical also swept the design categories, winning for set, costume, lighting, and sound design. The musical’s cast recording also got a Grammy nomination for Best Musical Theater Album.
