When this was doing the rounds in its earlier runs I took a brief glance and quickly decided that no, this wasn’t for me.
The number of obsessives I saw on social media giving this raves grew rapidly, as did the success. The husband downloaded the album and I had to admit that the numbers were great but I wasn’t sold completely yet. When thinking of a birthday gift for him this year I thought that I’d book this, as it would be totally selfless (which isn’t always the case when we buy a theatre trip for one another!) as he was much more into it. Fast forward to this evening when I sat in the front row of the right slips (fantastic value for money!) and I have to admit I’m totally sold on it. The queens were each incredible and I instantly loved it.
I also thoroughly enjoyed playing the game where I was trying to identify the reimagined Tudor style pop numbers before the show!

It seems the bootleggers have started with this show.

It seems the bootleggers have started with this show. Is this really the bootleggers in action or more the Generation Z-era who know no better?

A mixture of both I'd say. There are genuine bootleg traders, and the crazies. But the incident concerned is most likely the crazies as the bootlegs concerned were posted onto a fan account for the show.

Is there a difference between genuine bootleg traders and crazies?? They're both in the wrong for filming it in the first place.

Let's face it, half of the crazies are going to be recording the shows via audio anyway. Though why you need a thousand versions of a show I will never know.

One thing that I noticed on the audios is the key of Heart of Stone has been lowered compared to the one on the cast album. I guess Natalie/Grace realised that belting that note every day in that higher key without fail would be a massive strain.

I finally saw Six this afternoon after having the album pretty much on repeat since it came out. Wow, I loved it! It was just so much fun and full of energy. Very very funny and the vocals/harmonies - just incredible! Highlights for me were Alexia McIntosh as Anna of Cleves who was just hilarious and Natalie May Paris singing 'Heart of Stone' which blew me away. But all six Queens were truly excellent and I enjoyed it so much! Would definitely love to see it again.

I've just seen apparently someone was filming during one of the shows today and Millie stopped and called them out to stop.

Not sure if this has been mentioned already, but Cuba Gooding Jnr. was at the show last night. I was watching Alexia's livestream and she said he was in. http://instagram.com/p/BuQ269wHdca

I wonder if CGJ was in town to discuss his next MT project?
The all-star LM, perhaps, or a small role in TPotO. We can but hope. 😉

Millie called someone out again this afternoon. It was non-verbal, she pointed at them and shook her head and gestured for them to stop during I Don't Need Your Love.

At stagedoor of Waitress last night Kat McPhee was talking to a group of girls near me who were on a London theatre trip and was telling them that Six was amazing, and if they see any show they have to go see that one, haha! 🙌

5 Olivier nominations for Six. Best New Musical, Best Supporting Actress in a Musical (all 6 queens), Outstanding Achievement in Music, Best Costume Design and Best Theatre Choreographer. That's more than I think anyone expected so a real achievement for them.

From a student production at the Edinburgh Fringe to WhatsonStage award winners and Olivier award nominees in barely eighteen months is one heck of an achievement for all involved!
