The Tony Award-winning production of “Moulin Rouge! The Musical” has extended its Broadway engagement by five weeks due to popular demand, producers announced Friday.

Originally scheduled to close in July, the musical will now play its final performance at the Al Hirschfeld Theatre (302 W 45th St, New York, NY 10036) on Sunday, August 30, 2026. By its conclusion, the production will have played 2,297 regular performances, making it the 36th longest-running show in Broadway history.

The extension coincides with a significant casting shift. Broadway veteran Eric Anderson is set to return to the role of “Harold Zidler” on May 19. Anderson, who originated the role in early workshops, succeeds Megan Thee Stallion, whose final performance in the production is scheduled for May 17.

“Moulin Rouge! The Musical” opened in July 2019 and went on to win 10 Tony Awards, including Best Musical. It remains the only musical from the 2019-2020 season to have recouped its initial investment and is currently the highest-grossing production in the 100-year history of the Al Hirschfeld Theatre.
