Six The Musical at Orpheum Theatre

The Six story

"Six" is the tale of the wives of King Henry the 8th, who was a controversial king of England in the early 1500s. During his nearly four decades of rule, he had six marriages. His efforts to leave his first marriage led to the separation of the Church of England from papal authority. Many people probably know the story of Henry VIII. However, you may not know the story of his six wives. That’s where "Six" picks up.

This musical delves into the story of the six queens as they tell their difficult experiences with the king. The queens compete for who had the roughest experience in living with the king. The queens discuss divorce, rejections, infidelity, and even beheadings in a way that amuses you while also touching your soul. There is a relatable twist on the story by incorporating a dating app in a hilarious way.

Eventually, they realize that battling over who had the worst time with Henry VIII is not helpful. They come to realize that Henry VIII took their individuality. They’re not just the six wives of a terrible king - they have their personal strengths that deserve celebrating. The Six eventually come together to write new endings to their lives. They achieve their “happily ever afters” that Henry VIII denied them by dreaming of what their lives could have been like without seeing Henry VIII.
