BWW TV: Robyn Hurder and Ricky Rojas Tell All About the Magic of MOULIN ROUGE
It's a lot more than just a bad romance between Nini and Santiago!
The Moulin Rouge is open for business eight times a week at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre, and while Satine and Christian might be the characters that fans flock to see, it's Nini and Santiago who stop the show. Robyn Hurder and Ricky Rojas bring that steamy love story to life in the new musical, which is based on the beloved 2001 Baz Luhrmann film.
