The multi-award winning show will be at Shrewsbury’s Theatre Severn from February 11 to 22 next year.

Winner of 35 major international awards including the 2022 Tony Award for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design’ on Broadway, double Whatsonstage Award winner for ‘Best West End Show’ 2022 & 2023 and a Gold-Disk winning album, the sell-out Tudor take-off has ‘an incredibly strong and powerful message’ and is described as ‘pure entertainment’.

From Tudor Queens to Pop Princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st century girl power.

Support comes from the show’s all-female band, The Ladies in Waiting.
