Six the Musical - Arts / Lyric / Vaudeville

I like them, thanks.

Hoping for a return to the Fringe, or even Edinburgh period. Perhaps the Traverse theatre?

Your correct. SIX is being played in the smaller auditorium (Quays theatre).

I hope this comes to Cardiff I love the score it genius

80mins according to the Lowry theatre info.

Saw it at the Lowry on Tuesday night, knew very little about it going in, and absolutely loved it - so much so that I bought the album on my way out.

I've just been looking at prices for Christmas 2019. Good luck to them - this is show business after all - but a seat that could be booked this year for £23, will cost either £35.50 or £39.50, plus fees.

Best start saving now @elanor!

I was actually half-joking, but I'm right with you there, ie never my thing but in this case....  and given all the CD sales and repeat visits, it probably won't be long anyway before people start singing along, even if it's not officially that sort of performance.  Now what about dancealong ones?!

I'd be up for a ruder, late night, no kids version too.

After watching the today’s afternoon show, I can easily say this was an absolutely brilliant show. When I first heard that it was touring to Salford I was honestly in 2  minds whether to come and watch it. Though after watching what is a completely crazy show, I’m really glad I did. Right from the first song, the whole production just gives out so much positive energy that you just get swept along with it. The pop concert style mixed together with cracking humour both within the songs and the and the banter between the cast in between the songs really did put a smile on my face through the 80mins.

The performances from the cast really where first class both from their individual songs as well as the ensemble numbers. This is definitely the type of musical theatre that really does greatly benefit from playing in a more intimate setting rather than a much bigger auditorium where I think a lot of the energy would be easily lost. Another benefit from the intimate setting is that you really do see the great coustumes that the cast wear.

The different styles of music employed was an inspired choice. Though I am a big fan of the pop ballard so I particularly enjoyed “Heart of Stone”, though the “Haus of Holbein” was another enjoyable number, particularly in the staging of it which was just so funny. The band sounded great and the sound mixing was spot on for such a small auditorium.

I have to say that the audience at this performance where really fantastic and only got the phones out at the end at the permission of the cast. I must admit some preshow dread as looking through Luke Bayer’s Twitter feed, he saw the show a few days ago and appears to have had some particularly bad patrons around him in terms of recording the show or the taking of photos during the show.

Overall, an absolutely fantastic afternoon at the theatre and definitely worth another viewing when SIX makes it Lowry return.
