Six the Musical has stormed the West End and conquered the world — a high-voltage pop concert reimagining the story of Henry VIII's six wives that turns Tudor history into a euphoric night of girl-power anthems. Playing at the intimate Vaudeville Theatre on the Strand, moments from Charing Cross and Embankment tube stations, Six runs at a tight 80 minutes with no interval, making it one of the most perfectly paced shows in London theatre. Queens Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr compete to be crowned the ultimate queen in a pop idol-style battle — each with her own bespoke musical style, from R&B to country to pop banger.
The show shares the same gift for making history feel viscerally alive and relevant that makes Hamilton such a cultural phenomenon — but Six does it in a fraction of the time, with costumes that belong on an arena stage and a live band that rattles the theatre's walls. If you love the fierce ensemble energy of Mean Girls, Six takes that spirit and cranks it up to eleven. Fans of powerhouse vocal performances should also check out Tina: The Musical at the Aldwych Theatre for another evening celebrating an unstoppable woman.
Six is perfect for groups, hen parties, first-time West End visitors and anyone who wants a short, sharp shot of theatrical brilliance. The merchandise queue rivals the best pop concerts, and audiences routinely leave hoarse from singing along. Book tickets for Six the Musical on the London Strand for an unforgettable night — and prepare to have 'Ex-Wives' stuck in your head for weeks.
