Bow down, the queens have arrived. Six, the musical currently in previews at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre, will officially open on Broadway Sunday, October 3.
Six tells the stories of the wives of Henry VIII as they reclaim their identities out of the shadow of their infamous spouse. Presented like a concert, Lucy Moss and Toby Marlow's score draws inspiration from contemporary musical artists who have dominated the pop charts. In the time since its debut at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017, the musical has become an international hit.
The musical first began performances in New York February 13, 2020, following a multi-city regional circuit. Originally announced to open on March 12, 2020, the show was shuttered just hours before due to the coronavirus pandemic.
