Broadway’s Moulin Rouge! to Close After Seven-Year Run

Moulin Rouge! The Musical will close on Broadway after seven years, with its final performance on July 26 at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, after logging 2,265 regular performances and 24 previews.

Opened in 2019, was interrupted by the pandemic, and reopened in 2021; producers hinted at more announcements before the curtain falls.
