The Six story

"Six" is the story of the wives of King Henry VIII, who was a well-known king of England in the 1500s. During his 4 decades of rule, he had six marriages. His demands to annul his first marriage saw the separation of the Church of England. Many people probably know the story of Henry VIII. However, you may not know the story of his many wives.

The musical delves into the story of these six queens as they tell their difficult experiences with the king. The queens compete for who had the worst experience in being married to the king. The queens discuss divorce, rejections, adultery, and even beheadings in a way that makes you laugh while also touching your emotions. There is a contemporary twist on the story by incorporating a dating app through a parody.

Together they realize that battling over who had the most awful experience with Henry VIII is not helpful. They eventually decide to think about how Henry VIII robbed them of their individuality. They are not just the six wives of a terrible king - they have their personal strengths that deserve celebrating. The Six eventually help each other to write new endings to their stories. They achieve their “happily ever afters” that Henry VIII denied them by picturing what their lives could have been like without marrying Henry VIII.
