Dates and venues have been confirmed for the upcoming UK tour of West End musical-hit SIX, currently playing in London’s Arts Theatre.

The tour will open at Guildford’s Yvonne Arnaud Theatre on 24th October 2019. The tour will then visit Malvern’s Festival Theatre, Theatre Royal Glasgow, Kingston’s Rose Theatre, Oxford Playhouse, Milton Keynes Theatre, Salford’s The Lowry, Cardiff’s Wales Millenium Centre, Edinburgh’s Festival Theatre, Theatre Royal Bath, and Southampton’s Mayflower Theatre, the final confirmed dates of the tour from 1st to 5th July 2020.

SIX has also made its way stateside, with a production currently running at Chicago Shakespeare Theatre in the US. Producers have also confirmed that international productions are being discussed in Canada, Japan, Australia and South Korea.

SIX, written by recent Cambridge University graduates Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, is a concert-style show featuring the six wives of Henry VIII. The show fuses modern pop and hip hop music to remix the story of historical heart break to 21st century girl power. The show premiered as a student production at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2017 before returning the following year as one of the main shows. Upon it’s open-ended return to the West End in 2019, the show received five Olivier Award-nominations including Best New Musical.

SIX is directed by Lucy Moss and Jamie Armitage. It features choreography by Carrie-Anne Ingrouille, set by Emma Bailey, costumes by Gabriella Slade, lighting by Tim Deiling, sound by Paul Gatehouse and orchestrations by Tom Curran.

The UK tour of SIX opens at Guildford’s Yvonne Arnaud Theatre from 24th October. The West End production runs concurrently at London’s Arts Theatre and is booking to 5th January 2020. Tickets are on sale now.
