Excellent touring Company production
I was completely won over by this production which,played Philadelphia prior to DC. John Cardoza and Courtney Reed were Christian and Satine backed by an excellent supporting cast. Excellent band,costumes and physical production. Courtney Reed recently began playing the role of Satine on Broadway . John Cardoza remains as of now. Both again were wonderful. ... Read more

Moulin Rouge H-town production at Hobby Center
Had a chance to watch the musical today at the hobby center in downtown Houston. I was very impressed with show ! I went with my 2 daughters who are 13 & 14 years old. This was their birthday present to me.
I didn’t know what to expect. We love the movie and also appreciated that the musical was going to be different with new music and changes to story. The musical did a great job of blending in pop lyrics into dialogue, very entertaining!
Set design, lighting and sound quality were excellent. The movie’s art design set a high bar and the musical exceeded my expectations ! The cast was amazing, incredible performances by all.
I highly recommend this show and would watch a few more times if I could ! ... Read more

Absolutely Fantastic! Blown Away!!
The singers/dancers were phenomenal. The intermingling of modern songs we all know was beautiful & used impeccably within the script/setting. The stage & settings while impressive, were simple support for a very talented cast without being over bearing. Great direction gave performance a flow that left you wanting more. Funny, energetic, happy, exciting, sad, anger, intensity, this musical will touch every emotion! Totally absorbs you!! ... Read more
