Six the musical is a Double Tony Award winner for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design’, and winner of the WhatsOnStage Award for ‘Best West End Show’ (2022 and 2023)
Embarking on its UK tour, Six the musical tells the history of Henry VIII's wives in a way audiences haven't seen before. From Tudor Queens to Pop Princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st century girl power. These Queens may have green sleeves but their lipstick is rebellious red.
Six the musical is a sell-out Tudor take-off with ‘an incredibly strong and powerful message’ (The Australian) and is ‘pure entertainment’ (New York Times), with a Gold-Disk winning album featuring songs such as Don't Lose Ur Head and Ex-Wives.
Think you know the rhyme, think again...Divorced. Beheaded. LIVE!
Age Guidance 10+ as show contains mature themes and sensitive subjects.
