Sexy and Entertaining Stage Shows Play Live at the Moulin Rouge Next Show: November 4th @ 6pm slt.- Shaneos Howlett Reporting…

Various entertaining short stage shows including scenes from such greats as Rocky Horror Halloween play live at the Moulin Rouge.

In October 2013 I spoke with Manager Xanthia Martian - for insight in to behind the scenes operation and what makes the Moulin Rouge a location worth visiting, details follow...

The Moulin Rouge stage shows have various sets with live dancers performing shows based on such classics as Rocky Horror / Chicago / Harem of the Nile /  Midsummer Nights: Myths, Fantasies & Fairytales / Gangsters & Molls / Top Secret (Spy Show) / Jungle Fever/ Prehistoric Show / Old West Can Can - Saloon Show / Pirates! and many more live on stage. 

For over 6.5 years Xanthia Martian has been managing the Moulin Rouge in SL since August 2007, the original manager and owner Kris Harmison opened the Moulin Rouge 9 years ago, with the last 7 years on the same sim / location and sadly passed away on 16th September 2013.  Kris Harmison’s husband along with the help of Xanthia Martian will continue to operate the Mouling Rouge.

Shaneos: Are you currently hiring? If so, what are the requirements needed to be part of the MR team?

Xanthia: We are hiring for Candy Girls and for Dancers.  For both, you are required to know the basics of emoting and roleplay, have a willingness to learn and bring no drama.  For both we like to have an interview prepared.  For dancers, we audition... they must know how to choreograph or be willing to learn.  Building sets is a plus

Shaneos: Anything else you would like to share with our readers?
