I'll start by saying I was already a huge fan of Six, but this was my first time seeing it live and it definitely exceeded the expectations! Everything was throughly explained, I didn't have to wait to get there and the actresses and players were mind blowing! (I also had the limited view seating but it didn't stop me from having the time of my life) 10/10

Why watch Six?
- An offbeat, pop‑concert style show where the six wives of Henry VIII each tell her story through sass and slick songs, Six is an empowered, witty twist on Tudor history.
- Lauded across the West End and Broadway, Six has earned multiple Olivier nominations, including Best New Musical, and won a Tony for Best Original Score and Best Costume Design.
- Six started as a student project at Cambridge by Toby Moss and Lucy Marlow and has bagged Olivier nominations and Broadway transfers to become a theatre-world juggernaut.
- Costume designer Gabriella Slade and lighting guru Tim Deiling create a pop-concert-meets-history aesthetic that’s part Spice Girls, part Tudor Times, and all iconic.
- Expect bold themes of sisterhood and resilience, eye‑catching pop‑Tudor costumes, energetic choreography, and a live all‑female band (the “Ladies in Waiting”). Don't wait to slay, book your Six the musical London tickets now!
Divorced, beheaded, live! Six the Musical reboots history with a high-voltage feminist twist. Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss while still at university, this show flips the script on the tragic tales of Henry VIII’s wives. First showcased at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, these women are no longer historical footnotes—they’re queens of the mic, telling their own stories in their own words.
Backed by a killer live band (the Ladies-in-Waiting) and loaded with pop culture references, Six delivers history, herstory, and hysterics. The show has bagged 5 Olivier Awards, and has won 3 Joseph Jefferson Equity Awards! Whether you're a history nerd, a theatre lover, or just want a fierce night out, Six the Musical London is your crowning jewel.
Storyline
Henry VIII, despite his impressive list of achievements, is infamously known to be the wife killer. He married and beheaded 6 of his wives. This play is an attempt at understanding what the 6 went through but in the form of a musical showdown.
The show starts with a musical battle between the 6 to determine who has had the worst experience at the hands of their husband. Through these battles, the show explores the themes of beauty and external validation in their times. Most importantly it explores the lack of agency women had in their lives. Ultimately the 6 realize how society functions and its impact on their lives. This show is the perfect example of lacing a poignant issue with comedy to make it more palpable.

Finally saw Six the Musical at the Vaudeville Theatre in London after being a fan since 2020, and what an absolute blast it was! Each queen brought her own fierce, shining personality, and the music was just as catchy as I’d hoped. The theatre itself was lovely, and it being my first London theatre experience made it even more special. Anne Boleyn totally stole my heart this performance, she's just so much fun. I even grabbed a Six magnet to remember the night forever. Second time in London, but this show made it my favourite trip yet. Highly recommend to anyone, Tudor history fan or not! :-)
