Divorced. Beheaded. Died. Divorced. Beheaded. Survived. And now, they sing. This November, the globally acclaimed “SIX the Musical” will make its royal entrance at the Sands Theatre, Marina Bay Sands, Singapore. Co-created by the talented Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, “SIX” reimagines the tragic tales of Henry VIII’s six wives through a vibrant, modern pop lens, transforming them from historical footnotes into fierce pop queens reclaiming their narratives.
“SIX” is not just a musical; it’s a cultural revolution. It premiered in 2017 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, swiftly transitioning to sold-out shows in London’s West End and Broadway, where it captured hearts and critical acclaim alike. The concept is as bold as it is brilliant: The six queens, often overshadowed by their infamous husbands, take the stage to tell their stories, each song a catchy, empowering anthem that brings historical figures into the 21st century with a dazzling twist.
