Six, created by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, centers on the six wives of Henry VIII, who take the stage as a modern pop girl group to share the details of their horrible marriages. They compete to see who had it the worst with Henry, but they also get to share what they were like independent of him. The five-star New York Theatre Guide review of Six calls the show "pure musical theatre elation for a pop-packed 75 minutes."
