About the Show

Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss' modern musical retelling of the lives of Henry VIII's six wives.

Six Tudor Queens, all wives to Henry VIII, take the mic to remix their infamous marriages into a 75-minute pop concert. 'Six' finds its new permanent home at the Vaudeville Theatre.

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+.

The show has since transferred to Broadway, opening at the Lena Horne Theatre in October 2021.

Four years on from its Edinburgh Fringe debut, the show still feels like a breath of fresh air. The production is also a true ensemble effort ... You’d need a heart of stone to resist.

"Six the musical is a high energy show that is more than a pop concert"

“Moss and Jamie Armitage’s infectiously fun production is packed with witty touches that make history, and theatre, easily accessible...A heart-warming, air-punching finale has everyone up on their feet; no wonder ‘Six the musical’ tickets are still in high demand. I expect these queens to rule the West End for years to come.”

I suspect ‘Six’ will be a big hit. But if this is the future of feminism, lop my head off now.

“The challenge for a new cast is to find a way to make the roles their own, something that’s not a problem here. Indeed, no matter how many of the previous casts you’ve seen, this is the line-up you don’t want to miss. The 2023 Queens make SIX feel like an entirely new show”

A rather odd show. The costumes are garish, even comical. The singing is outstanding. But the stories told are not, lacking detail, substance and novelty, leading the songs to focus purely on the frivolous and facetious. Catchy music, funny jokes, but an ultimately forgettable performance.

"This is a unique, exciting, and fun show that can be consumed repeatedly."

For a previous production

The songs are insanely catchy, and if subtlety gets gleefully ground beneath the show’s rhinestone-studded stiletto heel, that’s not what anyone came for anyhow. It isn’t profound, but this is a party – and it’s unstoppable.
