Moulin Rouge - The Musical
I had the pleasure (PLEASURE!) of seeing the Moulin Rouge musical on Broadway this past weekend. The movie remains one of my all time favs so why not check it out live?!? I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed, but I had no idea what was about to unfold.
The show is just out and out amazing. Start to finish and everything in between. You may know that the music strings together lyrics from popular songs through the decades, telling a love story in the process. Incredible.
It is spellbinding. I was laughing and crying and dropping my jaw in awe all at the same time, the entire time. Talk about mixed emotions.
Here’s just a flavor:
I walked out of the theater literally exhausted, inspired, and motivated.
Exhausted by the range of emotions, the roller coaster plot, and the sensory overload.
Inspired by the creativity that was exhibited in every fiber and every second of the show.
And…ultimately motivated to bring that level of creativity to my own work. To challenge myself to make everything bigger, more impactful, more emotional. Bigger, better, brighter. To bring everyone to their feet with every act.
You get the point. What’s your experience? JIM
