Six Synopsis - Broadway musical

Full Synopsis

A Concert Fit for Queens.

The musical is structured as a pop concert where each wife competes to prove who had the worst time with Henry VIII. The winner gets to be the group’s lead singer. Each queen performs a solo, sharing her tragic, dramatic, or scandalous past. The performances mix historical facts with pop culture, creating a thrilling experience.

The Queens and Their Stories.

• Catherine of Aragon – The first wife, she refuses to accept Henry's betrayal. Her song "No Way" is a powerful anthem of resilience.


• Anne Boleyn – Famous for her execution, she brings sass and attitude in "Don’t Lose Ur Head."


• Jane Seymour – The only wife Henry supposedly loved, she sings the emotional ballad "Heart of Stone."


• Anne of Cleves – Divorced but living in luxury, she flaunts her independence in "Get Down."


• Katherine Howard – A victim of manipulation, her song "All You Wanna Do" starts playful but turns tragic.


• Catherine Parr – The survivor, she questions why they compete in "I Don't Need Your Love," shifting the musical’s tone.

Reclaiming Their Stories.

Instead of fighting for the title of “most wronged,” the queens realize they are more than just Henry’s wives. They rewrite their stories, embracing their own achievements and independence. The finale, "Six," unites them in a powerful celebration of female strength and identity.
