Six The Musical

Six The Musical is a musical in which the six wives of Henry VIII tell their stories through pop songs. It returns to the Vaudeville Theatre in London, where the show is staged.

Six The Musical reimagines the lives of Henry VIII's six wives as a pop concert, with each Queen taking the microphone to tell her side of five centuries of Tudor history. The writing gives the story a modern, comic tone, and the show's soundtrack has charted in the UK pop charts, which is the main reason its songs are discussed beyond the theatre.

The production runs for about 75 minutes and combines the staging of a live pop gig with the structure of a musical. Its focus is on reframing historical heartbreak through twenty-first-century attitudes, with the Queens presented as performers rather than as figures of the past.

The performances take place at the Vaudeville Theatre London, a venue in the capital that hosts concerts and shows. The production is on this visit to London for a return run.
