Tony Award® Winner Best Musical, "Moulin Rouge! The Musical" A Magical Masterpiece at the Pantages thru 11/16

An enthralling exuberant exciting energizing endearing extravaganza. You won't want to take your eyes off the stage lest you miss a moment!

Do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Hurry on down to Hollywood's prominent preeminent pristine polished Pantages Theatre to catch this grand gorgeous glorious gem, winner of ten 2021 Tony Awards including Best Musical. Based on the 20th Century Studios mind blowing motion picture by the brilliant genius Baz Luhrmann, Moulin Rouge! The Musical, is a razzle dazzle spectacle of love, light, and laughter. Who can ask for anything more?!

You don't have to be familiar with the 8x Oscar nominated (including Best Picture) flick, to be in awe from the second you enter the theatre to and including the encore which is a show in itself. It will be difficult to remain an audience member and not want to join the ensemble in their celebration of the century. Plan to be movin n groovin, dancin n singin, rockin n rollin in your seat all night long.

The commanding compelling captivating charismatic cast of tantalizing triple threats, each a superstar in their own rite, is led by Arianna Rosario as “Satine” and John Cardoza as "Christian" (both from the original Broadway production) with Robert Petkoff as “Bobby Daye," Andrew Brewer as “The Duke of Monroth," Jahi Kearse as “Toulouse-Lautrec," Danny Burgos as “Santiago," Kaitlin Mesh as “Nini," and Jerica Exum in the role of the “Satine Alternate."
