Commentary

Did you ever wonder to yourself, “What would happen if the six wives of Henry the Eighth formed a girl group in the afterlife?” No? Well, apparently Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss did. I have not seen the musical itself, but the soundtrack works without any prior introduction. Great singing, some of the most clever wordplay I’ve ever heard in a musical, and some lovely poignant moments as well. A delightful confection.

Notes

After getting familiar with the songs through the original soundtrack, the Live on Opening Night version adds extra dialogue and is both raucous and joyful.
