From new riffs to surprise costume reveals, every element has been leveled up for New York, leaving no stone unturned."
Lucy Moss and Jamie Armitage co-direct Six and Carrie-Anne Ingrouille provides choreography. Six features set design by Emma Bailey, costume design by Gabriella Slade, lighting design by Tim Deiling, and sound design by Paul Gatehouse.
