Six The Musical London HERstory
The modern retelling of King Henry VIII's six wives turned divas had its humble beginnings in 2017 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where it was presented by history-loving Cambridge students. The concept of the show was born in a poetry class. As research for the show, Marlow read Antonia Fraser's "The Six Wives of Henry VIII" whilst Moss watched Lucy Worsley's documentary series Six Wives.
Since making its professional debut, the musical has crossed the pond for its North American premiere at the Chicago Shakespeare Theater and later was announced to head to Broadway. The West End production has been nominated for 5 Laurence Olivier Awards, including Best Musical, whilst the Broadway production was nominated for two Drama League Awards.
The award-winning musical returned to London's Arts Theatre and was set for an extended run before being impacted by COVID-19 closures. SIX then moved to their temporary castle, the Lyric Theatre, for a COVID secure limited run. Now, the Queens are telling HERstory at the West End's Vaudeville Theatre.
