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.
It was empowering and absolutely outstanding from start to finish, the kind of night that hits with attitude, precision, and pure joy. The queens owned the stage, the vocals were unreal, and the entire production felt like a history‑meets‑rock explosion.
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.
You likely learned the rhyme in school. If you are a history buff like I am, you know the names of each wife of King Henry VIII. And now this popular musical is back at the Orpheum, after first making HERstory in Memphis in November of 2023. Nearly 3 years later, the show is just as fun, just as vibrant, just as exhilirating, and just as much of a sensation as it was back then!
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.
