Six Tickets

Six on Broadway is ruling the Lena Horne Theatre — and the world. The Tony Award-winning musical has drawn countless audiences to experience a royal "histo-remix." Get Six tickets on New York Theatre Guide today.

In the space of just a few short years, Six grew from a small festival production to an international musical phenomenon, and like Hamilton, the Six Broadway show has burst out of the theatre bubble and into the mainstream.

The Six musical features the testimonies of the six ex-wives of British royal tyrant Henry VIII — told by the Queens themselves at a modern-day girl group concert. They dispute who should be the lead singer of the group, agreeing it should be whoever received the poorest treatment from their former husband. The Queens battle it out with scintillating solos and a handful of gratifying group numbers to boot.

Each Queen is inspired by present-day pop divas. While Catherine of Aragon carries herself like Beyoncé, Anne Boleyn rocks out more like a "Sk8er Boi"-era Avril Lavigne. The smooth tones of an Adele-esque Jane Seymour contrast nicely with Anna of Cleves, who gives us her best Nicki Minaj. And while Katherine Howard brings us seduction à la Britney Spears, the survivor Catherine Parr rounds out the group with the gravitas of Alicia Keys.

Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss wrote Six at 21 years old during their final year at Cambridge University. Presented by Cambridge University Musical Theatre Society at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017, this fresh new musical caught the attention of producers Kenny Wax and Global Musicals, who would bring Six to the Arts Theatre in London's West End in December of that year. Its success snowballed from there, spurred on by the release of the original cast recording in September 2018, which earned the show a global following. Six toured the U.K. and later returned to the West End for an open-ended run.

The "little show that could" was honored with five Olivier Award nominations in 2019, including Best Musical in a category that also included Come From Away, Fun Home, and Tina: The Tina Turner Musical.

Following a North American premiere in Chicago in May 2019, the U.S. cast toured to Cambridge, Massachusetts; Alberta, Canada; and St. Paul, Minnesota. The show shuttered temporarily on its would-be Broadway opening night in 2020, but its eventual 2021 premiere earned Six on Broadway eight Tony nominations and two wins, for Best Original Score and Best Costume Design of a Musical.
