Play

Many adults learned about Henry VIII in school. Does the rhyme, "divorce, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived", jog your memory? The Broadway show Six takes a somewhat fictionalized approach to telling the story.

Throughout the show, viewers witness the ex-wives grow from victims into thriving individuals. Banding together, they turn their contest into a stunning pop concert that promotes girl power.

One innovative aspect of this production includes an villain who the audience never sees. The minimalist cast includes only the six ex-wives and the chorus. This historical remix features the following six main characters:

• Catherine of Aragon, Henry's first wife whom he divorced
• Anne Boleyn, beheaded
• Jane Seymour, died
• Anna of Cleves, the king's second divorce
• Katherine Howard, beheaded
• Catherine Parr, the only woman to survive the king
