The Story
The contemporary reinterpretation of King Henry VIII's six wives, transformed into divas, had its modest inception in 2017 during the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It was conceived by a group of Cambridge students with a deep passion for history. The inspiration for the show initially emerged in a poetry class. In preparation for the production, one member, Marlow, delved into Antonia Fraser's The Six Wives of Henry VIII, while another, Moss, immersed themselves in Lucy Worsley's documentary series, Six Wives, as part of their research.
