Six the Musical Broadway Reviews | What The Critics Think<\/h2>\n

\u201cAside from its sense of humor and spirited radicalism (and the musical force of the intensely committed and talented actresses in the show), the greatest asset of \u201cSix\u201d is the way it understands a complex historiographical paradox.\u201d – The Chicago Tribune<\/a> on the 2019 Chicago Shakespeare Theater performance. \u201cDirected by Ms. Moss and Jamie Armitage, \u201cSix\u201d delivers pure entertainment throughout its headlong 80 minutes. The wickedly smart lyrics are well set on tunes that are both catchy and meaty; the cast of terrific singers sells them unstintingly, straight to the joyful finale.\u201d – The New York Times<\/a> on the 2019 Chicago Shakespeare Theater performance.\u201cThe queens are a forcefield. Ditto the score, and its glorious onslaught of power ballads, pile-driving punk numbers, day-glo ravers, Spice Girl realness, rap, hip-hop and head-banging, hair-whipping, foot-stomping, twerk-worthy old school rock-and-roll.\u201d – The Chicago Sun Times<\/a> on the 2017 West End Theater performance.\u201cThe musical’s authors — amazing alchemists Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss — have created incessantly catchy and ingeniously crafted pop music gold crammed with historical nuggets about Tudor life and society. The result is unabashedly feminist in its perspective…\u201d – The Daily Herald<\/a> on the 2017 West End Theater performance.<\/p>\n

Six the Musical | Why You Must Watch The Show<\/h2>\n

The show has completely switched the narrative by lending an unapologetic feministic perspective by King Henry\u2019s wives. For the first time, the story of Henry VIII is told through the eyes of the wives, rather than what history books have told us. The all-female cast is backed by an all-female band, Ladies in Waiting. The play uses head-banging music along with humorous, upbeat lyrics, to capture the spirit of the 16th Century women with 21st Century perspectives. Six the musical offers a unique and enthralling feminist take on six women who will forever stand out in history by tackling patriarchy, emotional abuse and tyranny.<\/p>\n
