Moulin Rouge – The Musical at San Diego Civic Theatre

Since its premiere in Broadway, New York at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre in half a decade ago up to its upcoming run in San Diego Civic Theatre, Moulin Rouge! The Musical has been one of the greatest shows sought out by local and international audiences. The play, being a tale of classic romance, appeals to a wide reach of audiences and has solidified its place in Broadway history.

Moulin Rouge! The Musical tells the journey of Christian, an aspiring American writer who travels to Paris to launch a successful career, who then bumps into and eventually becomes infatuated with the famous performer Satine of the Moulin Rouge nightclub, one of the most lively and fantastic entertainment venues in Montmartre in the late 19th century. Their connection however is not meant to be easy, as the two start to face a series of difficulties, including the temper of one of Moulin Rouge’s wealthy patrons, the duke of Monroth who wishes Satine for himself and prevents Christian from openly declaring his love for her.

The title roles of Christian and Satine were introduced by Tony Award winner Aaron Tveit (for Best Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Musical), and Tony Award Nominee Karen Olivo (for Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role in a Musical) respectively. They were working hand in hand with a star-studded and equally-awarded cast including Danny Burstein (Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Musical), and Tony Award Nominee Sahr Ngaujah (Best Performance by an Actor in a Featured Role in a Musical) undoubtedly leading to the musical's success. Running the production, Tony winners such as Alex Timbers (Best Direction of a Musical), Sonya Tayeh (Best Choreography), and Justin Levine with Katie Kresek, Charlie Rosen, and Matt Stine (Best Orchestrations) produce an stunning play.

This approaching June’s adaptation of Moulin Rouge! The Musical is to be held at San Diego Civic Theatre in San Diego. San Diego Civic Theatre has long been known as one of the picturesque landmarks in the entire state of California, with not only beautiful architecture but also the greatest interior design appropriate to stage such a vibrant musical.
