Why see Six?
Move Over Hamilton!
Winner of two 2022 Tony Awards, including Best Original Score.
Move over Hamilton, there's a new soundtrack in town and it's JUST as infectious! Henry VIII's six wives are stepping out from the big man's shadow to take their turn in the spotlight in this epically good new musical! Created by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, SIX is a celebration of girl power - from the 16th Century to today - and debuted on the West End in 2018 to fantastic reviews. With an infectious songbook and costumes to make Gaga or Queen Bey jealous, this outstanding show pushes the boundaries of musical theatre! Much like Hamilton, Six injects its historical story with modern-day attitudes and modern-day music, serving up a dizzying whirl of pop and comedy, and an all-female cast. Don't miss it!
What Is Six About?
Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard, Katherine Parr. You know the names, and you may know how each of their marriages to a certain king came to an end, but these six women are far from just a historical footnote. In Six, the floor is theirs as they tell you what really went down in the court of Henry VIII.

Uplifting Sisterly Sassiness
The Spice Girls might have reunited but they've got a run for their money in the unexpected form of Henry VIII's wives. But unlike their static portraits (and positions in history), these girls can sing and dance and put on a dazzling performance.

Six was Amazing!!! My daughter and I went for some time out. It was fabulous. We went to England and had a tour with this very knowledgeable and comical guide. She told the story of Henry the VIII wife's. It was a lasting impress. The musical "SIX" put the icing on the cake. Fabulous.
The Six wife's each gave a outstanding performance. The band was off the chain (extremely good).
This show is a must see. I am definitely spreading the word and telling people to go see it. GO SIX. Love It.
Stop at Tiny Tavern had Food and Drinks to go (Love the drinks to go) But, had to finish before entering the show. Had dessert ( caramel Cupcake) after the show at Brown Sugar. My daughter and I had a great time.--Food, Wine, Show!! and dessert.

Hitting the high notes...
An 80 minute show with no intermission. Sorry, hitting the high "H" dosen't impress me...6 actors and 5 musicians throughout production. Basically a sloppy history lesson or a scream fest. Harmony was not part of 6 sirens singing. I went open minded but left close eared. Audience was into the show but if not for close captions on stage...I would have missed 50% of lyrics. Sound quality was poor with all 6 mics on plus musical performers. No set or costume changes, just alterations background lighting. I can only half heartily recommend this. ... Read more

Once You Know...
Once you know SIX is not your typical musical, but rather a concert, you'll absolutely love this show. It is difficult at times to hear or understand the lyrics, but trust me, the energy SIX puts out there is mind-boggling.
It's a fun, fun, fun and wonderful show.
