Moulin Rouge to Close on Broadway

People not being able to hold two things as true at once is so infuriating lol. She both could have been good-intentioned in accepting the role and she didn’t even negotiate a day off. AND she just experienced a life event. Yall can be miserable and pretend that a break up this public wouldn’t deeply affect you, but the fact is she’s human. Does it suck? Yeah. But life also happens.

So many sneers in this thread just to be mean for no reason. Try to think harder.

I don't think anyone is being mean for saying that breaking this contract a) hurts the show and b) that it is unprofessional to quit a job over a breakup. Most average every day people do not have that luxury. Her celebrity gives her privilege here. Acknowledging that isn't "mean", it's caused living in reality.

Tonight was a surreal experience. She is in no way right for the part but I give her alot of credit for jumping into a show like this that requires her to be on stage quiet a bit. The audience ate up everything she did and her entrance applause was ear shattering.

Certainly a night I won't forgot. Also shame on the merch company for seeing her merch with jacked up prices...$30 for a windowcard????

I'm sure she's getting a cut, and those prices were more in-line with concerts. It's pricey for Broadway, but her fans won't bat an eye!

Also, agreed that she was very fun! Funny, great stage presence, really made it work for her.

As expected, Aaron Tveit will return to the show one more time, from August 18-29.

Christian Douglas will be the closing night Christian.

Haha, right? As others and I predicted months ago, Aaron is Christian. Again. For the 6th? 7th time? Moulin Rouge to Close on Broadway

Seriously though, he's been involved with this show for nearly a decade, so it's very fitting. I am glad they are closing the show with the current Christian because Christian is fantastic and deserves that honor.

I was happy to see the show a few weeks ago for the third and final time. Every time I saw the show, I enjoyed it more and more. Kinda hated it at first, but it really grew on me once I knew what it was. One of the most beautiful designs of a musical ever on Broadway, bravo to Derek McLane, Justin Townsend, Catherine Zuber, Sonya Tayeh, and Alex Timbers on this ravishing and fun show.

Very gracious for Aaron to cede the closing performance back to Douglas. Such a gentleman.

As I've seen Aaron multiple times between Boston and Broadway, my final visit to the Rouge will be Aug 13, so see Christian Probst.

I've seen the tour numerous times and plan on seeing the Broadway production for the first time on 8/14.

Re: Moulin Rouge to Close on Broadway

Got my tickets for Aaron's final performance on Saturday night, 8/29 and the final performance on Sunday, 8/30. This is one of my favorite shows. First saw the show in August 2019, a few days after opening, and then again on the reopening night in Sept 2021, when Broadway came back after Covid.
