Theater is decent. Seating is a little tight. The clientele seems to be a lot of either suburban or out of towners, who don’t seem to know etiquette with watching a show. Many people talk, saying, and are just generally distracting.

The staff was nice enough.

We went to see Moulin Rouge! The Musical! I loved the theater, it was amazing with a 1920’s art deco design! The musical had a mix up of new music with a glitzy backdrop! Highly recommend!

Of course, we watched Moulin Rouge.
It was fantastic! As usual. One of my favorite theaters in NY

The show was amazing! The staff however are just rude and pushy. I get it when you are dealing with mass amount of people and most of them don't listen but it takes the same effort to be nice and friendly as it does to be rude. The customer walks away happier too! But the show (Moulin Rouge) was amazing!!!

Great cozy theater. Currently hosting Moulin Rouge ensemble. Bathrooms are easy to get to. Snak and drink stand is equally easy to access. Well managed by the super helpful staff, both outside and inside the theater. A very smooth experience. The setup for the show is phenomenal. You will be transported.

If you are visiting New York or live here and have the opportunity to see Moulin Rouge go see it. Worth every penny!
The theatre is beautiful with amazing talent.
At intermission the concession line was organized with 3 attendants making the line move pretty quickly. You have enough time to get a drink go to the bathroom and take selfies before the show restarts.
The to go cups say moulin rouge on them so you get a cute souvenir cup you can reuse.
I highly recommend.

The Al Hirschfeld Theatre is an older venue that appears to be well-maintained and well-run. Many have commented that the seats & leg space are somewhat small (TRUE; but I guess people were much smaller a hundred years ago). At 5'10" tall & average weight, I found my seat to be reasonably comfortable for the roughly 2h40m duration of "Moulin Rouge". // During intermission, the lobby & bar areas were predictably crowded/packed. But somehow, most everyone did their business, got their drinks, & were back in their seats in plenty of time to enjoy the rest of the show. // There are several subway stops nearby (about 2-3 blocks), so within easy walking distance. And a ton of bars & restaurants are nearby to enjoy after the show.

I was blessed to be a le to get a ticket to see Moulin Rouge! The theatre was phenomenal. The seating is a little small for a person of my stature (almost 7foot) but I wa able to get an end row seat where I was able to get comfortable. The whole theatre is so ornate and dripping in gilded gold everywhere. Courtney Reed was spectacular as Sadine! You must see this show.
