WELL WORTH THE TRIP FROM THE UK
As a huge fan of the film I knew I had to see the musical in Boston as soon as I heard
about it, although I wasn't sure I could ever take to anyone but Ewan and Nicole in the
lead roles, not to mention Jim Broadbent who was a briliant Zidler. My worries were
unfounded. ALL the cast were fantastic, including an extremely hardworking ensemble
who were very rarely off stage and who included some strong vocals, especially in the
opening number.
The soundtrack seems to have divided opinion but in my view the updated music was
the right thing to do - this isn't trying to be a stage copy of the film and it totally
succeeds in creating something new and exciting while maintaining the central storyline.
The new numbers support the narrative completely and Firework in particular is a stand
out.
Add to this the best set I've seen, stunning costumes and choreography and it's an all
round success. I think it could be slowed down in the 2nd act though - it was over too
quickly. Go see!!!

AMAZING ADAPTATION
Come what may is the theme song my husband and I live by so we had very high
expectations for this show. This cast and crew blew them out of the water. Such
high energy and amazing talent on stage and the theater was perfect for it...small
and engaging! Not for kids, and the best seats are actually around the 4th-5th
row.

AMAZING SHOW, JUST NEEDS TO ADDRESS MUSIC/STORY BALANCE
I completely disagree with reviews written by people saying if you're a fan of the movie, you'll hate this. I'm enough of a fan that I have 4 tattoos all centred around the movie, and I flew all the way from England to Boston, for the sole reason of seeing the show. I absolutely loved it. I was in the diamond VIP seating which was absolutely phenomenal, incredibly immersive. Sets incredible, performances incredible, the voices of all the actors incredible. Where I think the issues come in is the balance between the music and the story. Many reviews are essentially saying 'style but no substance', and at times, especially in the second act, when Satine's illness should really be the focus, it can feel like the writers were more focused on the music than the story. However, for me, it's not style but no substance, it's a bit too much style, not quite enough substance. They're both there, it's just the balance is off. An easily fixable issue to turn an amazing show into a perfect one.

SPARKLING DIAMOND SEATS! AMAZING EXPERIENCE!
If you have the opportunity, the Sparkling
Diamond Seats are nothing short of
extraordinary to be fully immersed in the
incredible sights and sounds of the Moulin
Rouge! As big fans of the movie, my wife and
I flew in from Dallas just to see the show. We
were not disappointed. The Emerson
theatre, Moulin Rouge set, talented cast and
new music (while preserving the best of the
songs from the movie), made this a
delightful evening.
The Duke could have been a little creepier,
but the magic between Sateen and Christian
was amazing. From our seats, we could see
the actual tears rolling down their cheeks
and their quivering lips. So powerful!
This show is a must see if you want a non
stop fun night that expertly weaves a love
story through a humorous and entertaining
string of jokes, songs and dancing!
Can't wait to see this on Broadway!
