Moulin Rouge!, the musical that blends the seductive performances of the Parisian courtesans with an epic tale of romance and a touch of dramatic flair, showcases the best of what the stage has to offer: catchy earworms, mesmerizing routines, breathtaking costumes, captivating performances, and a pure dedication to the art of entertaining. Based on the 2001 Baz Luhrmann film of the same name, Moulin Rouge! has dazzled audiences and critics alike, setting aside any doubts early skeptics may have had about the show’s ability to live up to its predecessor.

Dominic Cavendish,
The Guardian4/5
“The whole experience is awash with sure-footed dance: sensuous, fleet and duly delivering those signature can-can moves in a riot of petticoat lifting and high-kicking."
Sarah Crompton,
WhatsOnStage4/5
"From the second you enter you know what to expect: a musical with a heart of gold that seeks to entertain and overwhelm in equal measure. It is so over the top, it's irresistible.”
Marianka Swain,
The Arts Desk4/5
“It’s kitsch, joyful hedonism writ large, bursting with sparklers, streamers and technicolour vitality – and powered by a cast who know only too well that you should perform every show as though it could be your last. Irresistible entertainment."
Kate Wyver,
The Guardian4/5
"There is a lot to love: with a wonderfully wild energy throughout, it’s happily queerer than the film, and the well-known songs really are spectacular."
Suzy Evans,
London Theatreland4/5
"Timbers is not afraid to use every tool in his directing arsenal with this self-aware, but not self-conscious, amalgamation of vintage and modern, classic and contemporary. Every creative team member is clearly working overtime to deliver excellence and opulence."

The Lion King
Diogo Simoes Pereira
Having seen many of London's musicals, there are few which can truly make you feel as part of the action, and LK is one of these. Right from the start, with animals coming through the audience, you are welcomed, and with every music and every scenery, you are part of a realistic experience. 100% recommend!

An inventive, lively, and fast-paced show from start to finish. The staging is perfect, and the finale is wow! A must-see if you're visiting London.

I love this show, I'm a huge fan of the movie and I was curious to see it in music-hall
My Friends and I really liked it, the music and special effects are beautiful, and my favorite part I the flying delorean (I still wonder how they did it)

Moulin Rouge! The Musical
Silvana Makubikua
Moulin Rouge! The Musical was an absolutely spectacular experience from start to finish. The energy, costumes, choreography, and vocals were breathtaking, and the immersive staging truly made you feel part of the show. From our Royal Circle seats, the view of the stage was excellent and allowed us to fully appreciate the scale, detail, and atmosphere of the production. A vibrant, joyful, and unforgettable night, highly recommended!

My first music hall in London. I'm a huge fan of the movie, so I absolutely wanted to see it. An incredible experience, the singers are exceptional, and the music is sublime.

Hadestown
Jonathon Percey
This was my wife and I's last night in London. This was also our first show in London. It was beyond extraordinary. This Hadestown cast was top notch and we thoroughly enjoyed every second of it. The Lyric is gorgeous and contains so much character. As this was our 4th visit to London, a trip to see a show will forever be included in our itinerary.

The Producers
Michel Kronowit
I never saw "The Producers" before, neither on screen or stage, although I did see snippets here and there, so I was a little concerned the play might be dated and no longer funny, but I was wrong. It was still hilarious with a slapstick sort of zaniness only Mel Brooks could dream up. LOL
The songs weren't terribly memorable, although "Springtime for Hitler" will always be iconic, but it was fun to watch and the actors and actresses who performed at the Garrick Theater were outstanding. I was especially impressed by Roger's statue, he moved so fluidly and froze so perfectly. Just the way I'd expect a magical statue to behave.
The theater itself is very cute and classically quaint, but my seat in Row W was directly behind the seat in front. There's very little slope or offset, so if somebody in front of you is tall, then expect half the stage blocked from view. Music was performed live, out of view, but sounded great and so much better than prerecorded tracks. Great staff running the place.

Completely innovative in so many ways from the traditional - in a good way - that has you transfixed from beginning to end.
A must-see 🤩

Mamma Mia!
Laurane Rius
I went to see Mamma Mia with my boyfriend, who isn't a fan of the movie, and he loved it! I went through every emotion, I laughed and cried, the actors are absolutely brilliant. It was a wonderful evening, I give it 10/10!
