SYNOPSIS:
‘SIX’, written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, is a modern retelling of the lives
of Henry VIII’s six wives: Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna
of Cleves, Katherine Howard, and Catherine Parr, giving them a modern twist
and bringing their voices to the forefront.
​
The wives come together as a band to stage a pop concert and invite the
audience to hear their stories. None of them can decide who should be the lead singer, so they initiate a competition, or singing battle, to see who suffered the most as Queen.
Each wife believes they had it toughest and they belittle each other’s attempts to prove their hardship. However, they become frustrated that their place in history is defined by one man. So, together, they decide to pick up the pen and the microphone and re-write their stories.

She's unloved by her cruel parents but impresses her schoolteacher, the highly loveable Miss Honey. Matilda's school life isn't completely smooth sailing, however – the school's mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, hates children and just loves thinking up new punishments for those who don't abide by her rules.
But Matilda has courage and cleverness in equal amounts and could be the school pupils' saving grace!
