About Six
Six The Musical is the phenomenon everyone is losing their head over! This triumphant show takes the familiar story of England's notorious King, Henry VIII and his unfortunate six wives and turns it into a genre-busting musical. If you remember the rhyme ‘Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived’ from your history lessons, you’ll know that Henry's wives had plenty to complain about. Writers Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss take up the challenge and have written a spectacular musical that’s also a pop concert, with each of the six famous queens-turned-pop-princesses competing to sing their hearts out about how Henry did them wrong and who had it hardest. Book now and Get Down to the histo-remixed pop-concert musical by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss at the Queens' forever home, the Vaudeville Theatre!
The Story Unfolds: Origins and Evolution
It’s a riotous, feisty celebration of girl power with Six the Musical. Book your Six ticket and head over to London’s Vaudeville Theatre on the Strand for a powerful evening full of charm, with a musical whose songs are so good they’ve become a successful gold studio album.
Writers Marlow and Moss took Six the Musical with its Tudor divas to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017. It instantly proved a big hit and has since gone on to professional productions not only in the West End, but on Broadway and internationally. Nominated for five Olivier awards in 2019 this is one production that stands the test of time.
