About the Show

The six wives of Henry VIII take centre stage and reclaim their place in history.

Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Katharine Howard and Catherine unite for a concert unlike any other.

A British pop musical which reimagines the six wives of Henry VIII as modern day rock stars. In turn, each wife gives their own account of their lives providing perspectives which may not be included in our history books.

With book, music and lyrics by Toby Marlow ('Hot Gay Time Machine') and Lucy Moss ('Legally Blonde'). This production is recommended for ages 10+.

Relevant, Great writing, Entertaining, Clever, Great singing

See it if You like singing with a concert vibe. Lots of catchy songs with a bit of history thrown in

Don't see it if Was more of a concert vibe than a musical vibe and there wasn't much dancing/ ensemble/ choreography and no like full on stage acting

Clever, Raunchy, Intelligent, Great singing, Funny

See it if You love musicals. You love girl power. You love history. You want a laugh while you learn something. You want entertaining.

Don't see it if You want a family show for kids. You don't like all-female productions. You hate all musicals.

Quirky, Entertaining, Delightful, Funny, Clever

See it if you want something modern, fresh and popular. This is a good time more than anything else - if you want to have fun this is the show for you

Don't see it if you like traditional musicals. This is a concert more than anything else. It's short - if you want a full length show this isn't it.

Great writing, Great singing, Entertaining, Delightful, Absorbing

See it if I didn’t know what to expect as it wasn’t a typical musical. Story, talking and singing but I loved it So entertaining

Don't see it if You want a 2-3 hour show with an interval

Great singing, Funny, Entertaining, Delightful, Clever

See it if you like history, feminism, and a good time

Don't see it if you’re a misogynist

Fast paced, Quirky, Refreshing, Funny, Absorbing

See it if you are a theatre fan, it's fun, full of energy and different from anything else. It also has a great book and choreography not just songs!

Don't see it if you are not a fan of riffing and belting. This modern style of singing is currently on trend but not to everyone's taste. Acting is limited.

Riveting, Refreshing, Great singing, Entertaining, Clever

See it if Great numbers celebrating girl power and history or Henry 8ths 6 wives. Every woman tells a different story. Like a full blown concert.

Don't see it if You don’t like concert style theatre shows, loud music and dancing. It’s not a serious show.

Feminist, Must see, Great singing, Great writing, Hilarious

See it if You love a feminist musical that celebrates women or if you love a catchy musical!

Don't see it if You want a really long show with a story plot.

For a previous production

Yet it has its own manifest cheeky British personality – and...a dynamism that matches the best the West End has to offer...Unlike its hapless subjects, it looks set to have a long and happy life.
