American Theatre Guild presents ‘Six the Musical’
From Tudor queens to pop icons, the six wives of Henry VIII take the microphone to remix 500 years of historical heartbreak into a celebration of 21st-century girl power. “Six” includes flashing lights, strobe effects, theatrical haze and loud music throughout. The Tony Award-winning, electrifying new musical was written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss. The production is part of the 2024-25 Broadway in Birmingham Series and will take place at the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex (BJCC) Feb. 11-16. Buy tickets at broadwayinbirmingham.com, bjcc.org and ticketmaster.com. For more information about “Six,” visit sixonbroadway.com.
