From ‘Chicago’ to ‘Moulin Rouge!’, Here’s Where You Can Score Discounted Broadway Tickets Online

The musical adaptation of Moulin Rouge!, based on the movie directed by Baz Luhrmann, is a spectacle that attempts to balance excess and doom. Now, Megan Thee Stallion has joined in on the excitement. The Grammy-winning rapper recently made her Broadway debut in the fan-favorite production, making history as the first woman to take on the role of Harold Zidler. Critics have been quick to praise her turn, with Vibe Magazine describing her performance as “a dynamic run that showcases both her versatility and lasting star power.” You can read more about that here. While stunt casting has become increasingly common on Broadway, Megan Thee Stallion’s limited engagement stands out as a particularly buzzy moment. She is set to appear in the production through May 17, 2026. Catch the soundtrack, which includes 70 pop songs — including “Sympathy for the Devil” and “Bad Romance” — here.
