Four years after first seeing SIX, I still remain impressed by how well the musical continues to work. What initially seemed like a clever gimmick – a pop concert starring the six wives of Henry VIII – has instead proven itself to be one of the most inventive pieces of musical theatre of the last decade.
Take six insanely talented songstresses, a four-piece all-female band, an intricate LED-based set piece, some glow-in-the-dark glasses and studded platform boots, and what have you got? Surely not a historical recreation of the tale of Henry VIII and his six infamous wives. Yet that is exactly what is going down at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta this week, thanks to Broadway in Atlanta’s touring production of Six the Musical, written by Lucy Moss and Toby Marlow.
Mary Chieffo, known for Star Trek: Discovery, will present BLOOD BRIDES at The Hobgoblin Playhouse in Los Angeles, a one-woman show written and directed by Ellie Pyle featuring four mythic women from classical theatre.
From Tudor queens to pop princesses, the 6 wives of Henry VIII take the mic and remix 500 years of historical heartbreak into a euphoric celebration of 21st-century HERstory.
What’s more satisfying than watching six wronged women reclaim their power? Watching them do it in rhinestone corsets, backed by a thunderous girl band and enough LED lighting to short-circuit Times Square. SIX, the British import that’s barreled from university revue to Broadway headliner like a sugar-rushed Spice Girls revival, is a history class... if the lessons were taught in stilettos and unapologetic girl-group glory.
