SIX is back on stage at the playhouse this Christmas and the cast has been revealed

SIX will be on stage at Liverpool Playhouse from Tuesday 6th December 2022 to Sunday 8th January 2023

SIX is celebrating after its Grammy nomination for Best Musical Theatre Album, and its music being streamed over 19 million times with the live performance of the show described as one of the most uplifting pieces of British musical theatre in recent years that pushes boundaries and takes your breath away.

Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, two Cambridge University students who took SIX to the Edinburgh Fringe as a student show and it became a smash hit. SIXtells the personal stories of the six wives of Henry VIII, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st-century girl power. Six wives compete for the audience’s sympathy over who has been treated worst by Henry, who never appears in SIX.

Actor Jennifer who plays Anne Boleyn in SIX said:

“Having previously covered all the roles and had the opportunity to tell all those women’s amazing stories, to be able to play the iconic Anne Boleyn and fill the iconic boots of the incredible humans who have played her before is a dream come true. I want audiences to take away the message that we are all enough on our own! We don’t need to be defined by anything other than who we are!”

SIX brings a big, shiny, glitzy 90’s style girl gang along with a distinct strand of exuberant pop music telling history to the show. This show provides entertainment and gives you a chance to express yourself with pop music, and it lets you see yourself represented onstage.
