From January 21, 2026, Theater 11 Zurich will be transformed into a sparkling spectacle: Moulin Rouge! The Musical makes its first guest appearance in Switzerland. The award-winning stage production, based on Baz Luhrmann's classic film of the same name, is one of the most successful musicals of recent years.
Winner of ten Tony Awards, including "Best Musical", the production is one of the most successful of its kind. The elaborate stage design, elaborate costumes and captivating choreography create a visual spectacle. The soundtrack is based on new interpretations of international pop songs - from Elton John to Lady Gaga and Adele. The detailed staging creates an atmosphere somewhere between vaudeville, club and dream world.
After stints in New York, London and Cologne, the musical is now coming to Theater 11, where the Swiss stage will be elaborately transformed into the nightlife of Paris around 1900. Tragedy, glamor and passion merge in the story of the singer Satine and the writer Christian.
However, the musical can only be seen in Switzerland for a short time. If you want to experience this musical highlight live, you should get your tickets early. Moulin Rouge! The Musical runs from 21 January 2026 at Theater 11 in Zurich - a must-see for fans of great stagecraft and the glamour of the Parisian Belle Époque.
