Moulin Rouge! The Musical — Hirschfeld Theatre

Moulin Rouge! The Musical is running on Broadway at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre as of Wednesday, May 20, 2026, with the production now scheduled to close on August 30. The musical’s official site says tickets are on sale for all remaining performances, and Broadway Direct reported on April 10 that the run was extended by five weeks from a previously announced July 26 closing date. The production is based on Baz Luhrmann’s 2001 film and is staged at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, 302 W. 45th St. in Midtown Manhattan. The official site describes the show as running about 2 hours and 35 minutes, including one intermission, and says each seat offers a different viewing angle because of the production’s immersive staging. ### When does the show run, and why does this week matter? (moulinrougemusical.com) April 10 was the date the production announced its extension through August 30, 2026, giving theatergoers more time to book after the earlier July closing plan. Broadway Direct said the added five weeks came “by popular demand,” and Playbill reported the extension would bring the show to 2,297 regular performances and 24 previews by its closing. (moulinrougemusical.com) May 20 falls in a week when the show’s official Broadway page is promoting “best availability” for performances “this week and next.” The official ticket page says buyers can click on a specific performance to see tickets, which is the practical step for checking whether a date is an evening show or a matinee and whether seats are marked partial view. ### Who is in the cast at the Hirschfeld right now? (broadwaydirect.com) The official cast page lists Kelsie Watts as Satine and Christian Douglas as Christian in the current Broadway company. The same page lists Patrick Clanton as Harold Zidler, André Ward as Toulouse-Lautrec, David Harris as the Duke of Monroth, Ricky Rojas as Santiago and Samantha Dodemaide as Nini. May 19 was the date Broadway Direct said Eric Anderson would return to the production as Harold Zidler, succeeding Megan Thee Stallion, whose limited engagement ended May 17. (moulinrougemusical.com) That means the show entered this week with a cast transition in one of its featured roles, even as the official cast page still showed Patrick Clanton in the part when it was crawled.

The official ticket page says some seats are labeled “partial view,” a notable point for this production because action extends across the stage and theater. The site says each location offers a distinct perspective on the show’s visual elements, so buyers are directed to the seating chart when selecting tickets. (broadwaydirect.com) A limited ticket lottery is also available for every performance at $49, according to the official ticket page. The same page lists box-office hours at the theater and says group tickets are available for parties of 10 or more. ### How long is the show, and who is it recommended for? The official site says the running time is approximately 2 hours and 35 minutes with one intermission. (moulinrougemusical.com) It also recommends the show for ages 12 and up and says children under 5 will not be admitted. The production also carries content and sensory advisories. The ticket page says the show includes flashing lights, strobe lights, confetti cannons, fog, loud bass and subwoofers, and a prop gun that appears onstage but is not discharged.

The Al Hirschfeld Theatre offers D-Scriptive devices, I-Caption devices, audio induction neck loops and infrared headsets, according to the official ticket page. (moulinrougemusical.com) The site says those devices are free and that foreign-language captioning is available in Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Japanese, Mandarin and Korean through the GalaPro app. The official plan-your-visit page lists the theater address as 302 W 45 St and gives nearby subway connections including Times Square–42nd Street and 42 St–Port Authority Bus Terminal. It also lists nearby parking garages and dining options for theatergoers planning a same-day visit. August 30, 2026, is the production’s final scheduled Broadway performance, according to the official ticket page and the April 10 extension announcement.
