Boy George Joins 'Moulin Rouge'
Sharing the news on Today, Boy George announced that he would be taking his first bow on Feb. 6, 2023, until May 12, 2023.
George also mentioned that playing an ensemble member is something that he is particularly thrilled about doing.
"Just being part of an ensemble is really fun," he explained. "You can't have an ego, because there's too many people. It's about fitting in, especially because everyone's been doing this show for a while. So, hopefully, they're going to teach me."
According to Playbill, Emmy-nominated actor and singer Tituss Burgess is currently helming the throne, until Dec. 17, 2023. Eric Anderson will return for the role after Burgess' departure until before George takes over.
Per the publication, Courtney Reed stars as Satine, "Riverdale" star Casey Cott stands in as Christian, André Ward as Toulouse-Lautrec, Gabe Martínez as Santiago, David Harris as The Duke of Monroth, while Sophie Carmen-Jones as Nini.

The autobiographical musical features his life and the founding of his band the Culture Club and the New Romantic club scene in London, England.
