The multi award-winning musical SIX, written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, makes its hotly anticipated return to the Theatre Royal Bath for two weeks appearing from Monday 29th November to Saturday 11th December. Advance ticket availability for this spectacularly successful hit show is now extremely limited.

From Tudor queens to pop princesses, SIX sees the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their own personal tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st century girl power. These Queens may have green sleeves, but their lipstick is rebellious red. Think you know the rhyme, think again… Divorced. Beheaded. LIVE!

The touring Queens will be played by Lauren Drew as Catherine of Aragon, Maddison Bulleyment as Anne Boleyn, Caitlin Tipping as Jane Seymour, Shekinah McFarlane as Anna of Cleves, Vicki Manser as Katherine Howard and Elena Gyasi as Catherine Parr, with alternates Jennifer Caldwell, Cassandra Lee, Harriet Watson and Super Swing Natalie Pilkington. The cast are backed by the show’s all-female band, The Ladies in Waiting.

SIX has truly become a global phenomenon since its early days as a student production in a 100-seat room during the 2017 Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Now whilst it continues its sold-out UK Tour, SIX is also enjoying its new West End home at the Vaudeville Theatre, and has opened in New York to stunning reviews at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre on Broadway. It is also due to reopen in Australia this December at the Sydney Opera House.

Celebrating the global success of its songs with 450 million streams and over 3 billion views on TikTok, SIX released its Studio Album on vinyl last month, with a livestreamed launch to the global Queendom by TikTok.

SIX was nominated for five Olivier Awards including Best New Musical. It won the BBC Radio 2 Audience Award for Best Musical at the WhatsOnStage Awards and was invited to perform on the results show of ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent and BBC’s Children in Need Appeal Show.

Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, SIX is co-directed by Lucy Moss and Jamie Armitage, featuring choreography by Carrie-Anne Ingrouille. The design team includes Emma Bailey (Set Design), Gabriella Slade (Costume Design), Tim Deiling (Lighting Design) and Paul Gatehouse (Sound Design). The score features orchestrations by Tom Curran with music supervision and vocal arrangements by Joe Beighton; the musical director is Sarah Burrell.

SIX appears at the Theatre Royal Bath from Monday 29th November to Saturday 11th December. Tickets are on sale at the Theatre Royal Bath Box Office on 01225 448844 and online at www.theatreroyal.org.uk
