A passionate, high‐stakes love story set in 1899 Paris, where a
young writer falls for a dazzling nightclub star — and their
romance threatens the future of the Moulin Rouge itself.
🌟 Setting
Paris, Montmartre, 1899 — the bohemian heart of the city.
The Moulin Rouge cabaret is glamorous, chaotic, and financially
collapsing.
Moulin Rouge! The Musical follows Christian, a young idealistic
composer, who falls in love with Satine, the star performer at
the Moulin Rouge.
The club is on the brink of collapse, and its owner makes a deal
with a wealthy but dangerous Duke, who expects Satine’s
devotion in return for saving the theatre.
Christian and Satine begin a secret romance.
