The record-breaking global phenomenon that is ‘SIX The Musical’ will reign again, returning to Australia from 2026.
After triumphantly taking the West End, Broadway, and stages across the globe by storm, the international smash-hit production will make its royal return to Australia from next year, with seasons confirmed at Melbourne’s Comedy Theatre, Sydney’s Theatre Royal, and Brisbane’s QPAC.
It’s a fresh opportunity for fans and newcomers to experience the show’s irresistible blend of history, humour, and high-octane pop.
Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Catherine Parr will turn up the mics, remixing 500 years of history into an 80-minute, electrifying pop concert musical – one which has become a global cultural phenomenon.
The production, written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, tells the story of the six wives of King Henry VIII, who step out of the shadow of their infamous husband to reclaim their own narratives. It’s a modern pop-inspired musical which brings these historical figures to life.

“We are thrilled to be bringing the smash-hit musical ‘SIX’ back to Australia in 2026!” Louise Withers says, on behalf of the producers.
“We couldn’t ignore the roar of the Queendom — ‘SIX’ has become a cultural force here, and there is incredible demand from fans who want to keep reliving the magic.
“Since we first brought ‘SIX’ to Australian shores, this trailblazing pop-concert musical has broken records and played to packed houses, also earning widespread critical acclaim for its electrifying performances, witty storytelling, and empowering celebration of the six Tudor queens who rewrite their history on their own terms.
“Australian audiences have embraced the Queens with such passion and enthusiasm, and we can’t wait to share this next chapter of the show’s journey with them.”
’SIX’ is the winner of 38 major international awards, including two Tony Awards and a GRAMMY nomination. The soundtrack has amassed more than 5.2 billion streams, and the show itself attracts more than 3.5 million fans annually. It has now played in more than 15 countries.
