Added DiffLines:

The story seems to focus more on the play and revolution than the romance aspect.


Added DiffLines:

* FixFic: In adapting the story, the author seems to have changed a few things about the plot of ''Moulin Rouge''. For one, the Duke has more of a reason for why he wants the theater to fail (more substantial than "I want the leading lady and I can't have her"). Another small detail is that Duke comes to the conclusion that the play is imitating real life all on his own (instead of having one of the others endanger their career to make a catty FreudianSlip). Another is that since Joey and Tristan knew each other before the plot, they have more of a foundation for their romance. It may not necessarily make the story better, but it might eliminate some of the questions that might have been asked if it had stuck closer to the original.

* DancingIsSeriousBusiness: Their political revolution depends on attracting people to their shows, where they spread pro-dueling propaganda.
** At various points, Kaiba threatens to perform an AngryDance (or at least a high kick from one).
