About This Event
From January 19 to 20, 2027, Leicester's Curve Theatre hosts SIX, a celebrated musical theatre event that has garnered more than 35 international accolades, including the prestigious Tony Award for 'Best Original Score' and 'Best Costume Design.' This festival is a vibrant celebration of iconic women across history, exploring the lives of Tudor Queens and Pop Princesses. Known for its powerful message and sell-out performances, SIX promises to captivate audiences with dynamic stage presence and an engaging atmosphere that makes it a must-see event in the UK theatre scene.
Winner of over 35 international awards including the Tony Award for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design’, double winner of the Whatsonstage Award for ‘Best West End Show’ and a Gold-Disk winning album, this sell-out Tudor take-off has ‘ an incredibly strong and powerful message’ (The Australian) and is ‘ pure entertainment ’ (New York Times).
From Tudor Queens to Pop Princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their 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.
