'A glittering backstage pass to Moulin Rouge! The Musical and its journey to Broadway, with contributions from cast and crew, interviews with Baz Luhrmann and Catherine Martin, and a chronicle of its triumphant 2021 return.

'An iconic Parisian club, a cinema masterpiece, and now a Broadway musical – the Moulin Rouge has been a tantalising pop-culture phenomenon for over a century. The 2019 Broadway debut of Moulin Rouge! The Musical astounded theatre critics.

'Via a lush photo essay and oral history, the process of crafting Moulin Rouge! The Musical springs to life from early sketches, historical research, technical diagrams, and rehearsal photos. Theatre writer David Cote gathers the cast and crew’s firsthand accounts of the excitement and challenges of creating a show that referenced as much as it reinvented the Broadway musical.

'For lovers of musicals, fans of the movie, or anyone fascinated by the glamorous Belle Époque, this exquisitely realised book will seduce all – bohemian and aristocrat alike.' (Publication summary)
