Frequently Asked Questions

When is Six the Musical in Southampton in 2026?

Six the Musical is in Southampton from Tuesday 27 October to Saturday 31 October 2026 at the Mayflower Theatre as part of the 2026 UK and Ireland tour.

Where is Six the Musical performing in Southampton?

In Southampton, Six the Musical is playing at the Mayflower Theatre on Commercial Road, close to the city centre, rail station, bus routes, and a wide choice of bars and restaurants for a full evening out.

What is Six the Musical about?

Six the Musical is a modern pop musical where the six wives of Henry VIII form a girl group and present their lives as a high-energy concert and singing competition.

Each queen performs a solo about her experience with Henry to prove who had it worst, but by the end they reject the competition and choose to reclaim their individual identities and write their own happy endings together.

How long does Six the Musical run in Southampton?

The show runs for around 80 minutes with no interval, so it feels like a tight, high-energy gig rather than a traditional long musical.

This shorter running time makes it easy to fit Six into an evening in Southampton and still have plenty of time to travel home or enjoy the city before or after the performance.

What awards has Six the Musical won?

Six the Musical has won Tony Awards for Best Original Score and Best Costume Design, along with several major US critics’ and industry honours.

In the UK it has been nominated for multiple Olivier Awards, including Best New Musical, and is widely described as an international smash hit in the West End, on Broadway, and on tour.

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Six is generally recommended for older children and teenagers because it includes some mature themes, historical references, and cheeky lyrics, even though the overall tone is upbeat and fun.

Many families enjoy seeing it together, but parents should consider their child’s age and sensitivity and decide whether the language, jokes, and concert-style staging feel appropriate.

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

To get cheaper tickets at the Mayflower Theatre, look for lower price bands such as seats further back in the stalls or higher up in the circle and gallery, which often still provide a good view for this front-of-stage, concert-style show.

Booking early, choosing midweek performances instead of the busiest Friday and Saturday evenings, 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 last minute, weekday performances usually give the best chance of finding remaining tickets at reasonable prices compared with peak weekend shows.

You can also watch for same-day returns or unsold seats released by the box office or trusted ticket apps, which are sometimes discounted close to performance time, although this is never guaranteed for a popular musical.

Which performance days are usually the best value?

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday performances are typically better value than Friday and Saturday nights, when demand and prices are highest.

If any matinee performances are scheduled during the Southampton run, they can also offer good value and a wider choice of seats than busy evening shows.

What are the best seats for value at the Mayflower Theatre?

For a balance between price and view, look for central seats a little further back in the stalls or in the front rows of the 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 provide 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 enjoyable and accessible even if you know very little going in.

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

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.
