Dive Into Glamour and Romance at Moulin Rouge! The Musical in Sacramento
This February, Sacramento audiences will get swept up in a whirlwind of spectacle, music, and passion as Moulin Rouge! The Musical comes to the SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center for a limited engagement from February 3–7, 2026. Presented as part of Broadway Sacramento’s touring season, this dazzling production brings the glittering heart of Paris’s most legendary cabaret to life onstage right here in the Capital City.
A Theatrical Celebration of Love, Truth, and Beauty
Based on Baz Luhrmann’s 2001 hit film, Moulin Rouge! The Musical masterfully blends classic storytelling with contemporary flair. It’s a jukebox musical that weaves beloved pop songs — from Lady Gaga and Sia to iconic Broadway hits — into an electrifying theatrical experience.
Directed by Tony Award winner Alex Timbers with a book by John Logan, the show follows the romantic and tragic journey of Christian, a young writer who falls deeply in love with Satine, the sparkling star of the Moulin Rouge cabaret. Their forbidden romance unfolds amid the glitz, glamour, and bohemian thrills of turn-of-the-century Paris, where the club becomes a playground of dreams, heartbreak, and exhilarating spectacle.
Moulin Rouge! The Musical made its world debut in 2018 and quickly became a Broadway sensation, winning 10 Tony Awards including Best Musical and captivating audiences with its bold reimagining of the beloved film.
What to Expect in Sacramento
When you step into the SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center for Moulin Rouge!, get ready for:
• Eye-popping costumes and lavish sets that bring the Belle Époque era to vivid life.
• A heart-pounding musical mash-up combining pop hits with theatrical flair, pulling you into the cabaret’s electric world.
• Sensational choreography and dynamic performances that turn every scene into a celebration of movement and emotion.

The performance schedule offers several chances to catch this spectacular musical, including matinee and evening shows throughout the week. Whether you’re planning a date night, a girls’ night out, or a memorable theatrical outing with friends or family (recommended for ages about 12 and up due to mature themes), Moulin Rouge! delivers a feast for the senses.
A Night You Won’t Forget
Moulin Rouge! The Musical is more than a stage show — it’s an experience that celebrates the joy of performance, the thrill of love, and the power of storytelling through song and dance. With its mix of romance, spectacle, and pop culture thrills, this Broadway hit brings Paris — and its unforgettable spirit — straight to Sacramento.
Past Events
& Juliet
& Julie
Sacramento, your autumn soundtrack just got sparkly. & Juliet lands at the SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center for a multi-week run September 24 – October 5, 2025, with evening and matinee performances most days. If you like your Shakespeare remixed with pop bangers and confetti cannons, this one’s your jam.
What it is: A fizzing, funny “what-if” sequel that asks what happens if Juliet doesn’t end it all for Romeo—then rewrites her story to the beat of Max Martin’s greatest hits. The creative team includes David West Read (Schitt’s Creek), with a playlist that samples “Since U Been Gone,” “Roar,” “I Want It That Way,” “Confident,” and more. Runtime is around 2 hours 30 minutes with one intermission.
Plan like a pro: This production uses strobe/flashing lights, loud effects, confetti cannons, and pyrotechnics (great energy, but worth noting for sensory-sensitive guests). The show includes some adult language. Factor that into your family night plans.
Tickets: Grab seats via Broadway Sacramento and official ticketing partners (Ticketmaster lists the run at SAFE CU PAC). If you’re flexible, midweek evenings often have excellent availability.
Bottom line: & Juliet is pure pop joy with heart—and a perfect downtown night out between Farm-to-Fork eats and post-show selfies under the L Street lights. See you there.
