About Six: The Musical
Six began as a student production at Cambridge University and rapidly evolved into one of the most successful musical exports in recent theatrical history. The show made its Broadway debut in 2021 and has since become a cultural touchstone, celebrated for its sharp writing, infectious original score, and powerhouse performances. The premise is deceptively simple and brilliantly executed: the six wives of Henry VIII — Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr — compete in a pop concert format to determine whose life was the most tragic, ultimately reclaiming their own narratives in the process.
The show's soundtrack blends pop, R&B, hip-hop, and electronic influences into a score that hits like a greatest-hits album from a genre-defying artist you didn't know you needed. Songs like Ex-Wives, Don't Lose Ur Head, and Six have become anthems far beyond the theater world, streaming millions of times globally and introducing new audiences to musical theater who never considered themselves fans of the genre.
For Atlanta, Six represents exactly the kind of bold, contemporary theatrical programming that has made the Fox Theatre one of the premier touring Broadway destinations in the entire country. Atlanta fans who experienced the show during previous runs know exactly how electric the atmosphere becomes inside that legendary Moorish Revival auditorium when the queens take the stage.
