Frequently Asked Questions

When is Six the Musical in Sheffield in 2026?

Six the Musical is in Sheffield from Tuesday 1 September to Saturday 12 September 2026 at the Lyceum Theatre as part of the 2026 UK tour.

Where is Six the Musical performing in Sheffield?

In Sheffield, Six the Musical is playing at the Lyceum Theatre on Norfolk Street in the city centre, close to shops, restaurants, and public transport, and part of the Sheffield Theatres complex with the Crucible and Playhouse.

What is Six the Musical about?

Six the Musical is staged like a pop concert where the six wives of Henry VIII form a girl group and take turns telling their own stories instead of being known only by the rhyme “divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived”.

They start a singing competition to decide who had the worst time with Henry, but by the end they reject the contest and join together to rewrite their lives as powerful women with their own achievements and happy endings.

How long does Six the Musical run?

The show runs for around 75 to 80 minutes without an interval, so it feels like a fast, high‑energy live gig rather than a long two‑act musical.

This compact running time makes it easy to fit into an evening in Sheffield while still leaving time to enjoy the city or travel home afterwards.

What awards has Six the Musical won?

Six the Musical has won major international awards, including the Tony Award for Best Original Score and several other honours that recognise its music and design.

It has also received multiple Olivier Award nominations in London and is widely praised as an international smash hit for its sharp lyrics, inventive pop score, and bold reimagining of Henry VIII’s queens.

Is Six the Musical suitable for children and families?

Six is generally recommended for older children and teenagers because it includes some mature themes, historical references, and cheeky lyrics, even though the tone is fun and upbeat.

Many families enjoy seeing it together, but parents should think about their child’s age and sensitivity and decide whether the language, jokes, and concert‑style atmosphere feel appropriate.

How can I get cheap tickets for Six the Musical in Sheffield?

To get cheaper tickets, look for seats in lower price bands, such as those further back in the stalls or higher up in the circle, which can still offer a good view for this front‑of‑stage, concert‑style show.

Booking early, choosing midweek performances instead of Fridays and Saturdays, and avoiding the highest premium seats are straightforward ways to keep costs down while still enjoying strong seats.

Are there ways to get last‑minute discount tickets?

If you are booking close to the date, focusing on weekday performances usually gives you the best chance of finding remaining tickets at reasonable prices.

You can also check for same‑day returns or unsold seats released by the box office or trusted ticket outlets shortly before the performance, which are sometimes discounted, though this is never guaranteed for a popular musical like Six.

Which performance days are usually the best value?

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday performances are typically better value than Friday and Saturday nights, which tend to be the most in‑demand shows.

If any matinee performances are scheduled during the Sheffield run, they can also offer good value and a wider choice of seats compared with peak evening performances.

What are the best seats for value at the Lyceum Theatre Sheffield?

For a balance of price and view, look for central seats a little further back in the stalls or in the front rows of the dress circle, where you still see the queens and band clearly without paying top‑tier prices.

Because Six mainly uses the front and centre of the stage, some side or upper‑level seats in lower price bands can still give you a lively atmosphere and a clear view of most of the action.

Do I need to know Tudor history to enjoy Six the Musical?

You do not need detailed Tudor history knowledge, as each queen introduces herself and explains her story through clear, witty, modern songs that make the plot easy to follow.

A basic awareness that Henry VIII had six wives can make some jokes and references more satisfying, but the show is designed to be fun and accessible even if you know very little.

What should I wear and when should I arrive for the show in Sheffield?

There is no strict dress code, so smart‑casual clothing that you feel comfortable wearing for about 80 minutes is ideal, and many people enjoy leaning into the pop‑concert feel with bright or themed outfits.

Arriving around 30 minutes before the performance gives you time to collect tickets if needed, find your seat, and settle in so you do not miss the queens taking to the mic at the very start of the show.
