Grab your Valentine, your sweetheart or your bestie and join us for Date at the State!  Enjoy a special night under the stars and enjoy the classic musical film Moulin Rouge! at the Kalamazoo State Theatre Friday, February 11, 2022!

Duke may not have gotten his money’s worth, but you can with our “Spectacular” ticket deal.  For just $25, you get early entry into the theatre, early seat selection, and one drink ticket to get your date started in spectacular fashion!

Moulin Rouge! is a 2001 Australian–American pseudo-pastiche jukebox musical film directed, produced, and co-written by Baz Luhrmann. It tells the story of a young English poet/writer, Christian (Ewan McGregor), who falls in love with the star of the Moulin Rouge, cabaret actress and courtesan Satine (Nicole Kidman). It uses the musical setting of the Montmartre Quarter of Paris, France.

At the 74th Academy Awards, the film was nominated for eight Oscars, including Best Picture and Best Actress for Nicole Kidman, winning two: for Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design. It was the first musical nominated for Best Picture in 10 years, following Disney’s Beauty and the Beast (1991).

In 1899 France, a young writer named Christian (McGregor) defies his bourgeois father, leaves his family home and moves to the seedy, bohemian underworld of Montmartre, Paris. He is taken in by Toulouse-Lautrec (Leguizamo) and his entourage, and is drafted to write a nightclub spectacular. Through his relationship with Toulouse, Christian meets Satine (Kidman), the most beautiful courtesan in Paris and star of the Moulin Rouge nightclub. He and Satine enter into a passionate but doomed love affair.

This musical features original songs by David Bowie, Craig Armstrong, Marius De Vries and Steve Hitchcock.
