Six is a musical with music, lyrics and book by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss.[1] The idea came to Marlow whilst studying in his final year at Cambridge University, and despite uncertainties from collaborator Moss, the pair wrote the musical whilst studying for their final exams.[2] The musical is presented as a rock concert featuring the six wives of Henry VIII.
Productions
The world premiere production took place at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017, presented by Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society.[3] The production attracted the attention of several producers, and the show returned to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018. Six transferred to the Arts Theatre in the West End with an opening night on 30 August. The West End cast featured Jarneia Richard-Noel (Catherine Of Aragon), Millie O'Connell (Anne Boleyn), Natalie Paris (Jane Seymour), Alexia McIntosh (Anna Of Cleves), Aimie Atkinson (Katherine Howard), Maiya Quansah-Breed (Catherine Parr) and Grace Mouat (Swing/Dance Captain). The production closed on 14 October prior to a UK Tour.[4] The musical will re-open for an open ended run at the Arts Theatre on 19 January for an initial 16 week run[5]
