Megan Thee Stallion to Leave ‘Moulin Rouge!’ on Broadway Early
Megan Thee Stallion will end her run in 'Moulin Rouge! The Musical' on Broadway earlier than planned, with her final performance set for Friday, more than two weeks ahead of the original May 17 end date. The production did not disclose the reason for her early departure, but the performer expressed gratitude for the experience. Her time in the show, which began March 24, was marked by a brief hospitalization due to exhaustion and a recent public emotional appearance following a personal breakup. The show will announce a replacement for her role as Zidler soon.
