S1 Ep1612: Vidar Hjardeng MBE - Six The Musical, AD Theatre Review

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey is joined again by Vidar Hjardeng MBE, Inclusion and Diversity Consultant for ITV News across England, Wales, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands for the next in his regular Connect Radio theatre reviews.

This week Vidar was reviewing the international smash hit musical that is Six The Musical on Saturday 4 March at 4pm at the Birmingham Hippodrome Theatre with audio description by professional audio Describer Jonathan Nash. 

Winner of the 2022 Tony Award for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design,' the 2022 Whatsonstage Award for ‘Best West End Show’ and a Gold Disk winning album, this sell-out Tudor take-off has ‘an incredibly strong and powerful message’ (The Australian) and is ‘pure entertainment’ (The New York Times).

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. These Queens may have green sleeves but their lipstick is rebellious red.

Think you know the rhyme, think again… Divorced. Beheaded. LIVE!
