EIGHT: The One (Wo)Man Drag King Musical Parody

1 Phoenix St, London, WC2H 8BU

Description

Henry VIII has returned to the land of the living to discover he is exclusively remembered as that bloke with six wives. He’s even heard there’s a musical being performed in London, on ships and in York (the new one) in which six women spend an hour and a half, eight times a week, slagging him off!

So there was only one thing for it. Henry is clearing his name in a musical drag extravaganza. If you’re lucky, he may even give you some advice on love and romance.

Get ready for singing, dancing and maybe even some podcasting. Featuring parodies of songs by Meatloaf, Celine Dion and Ed Sheeran, this bonkers show explores the lesser known side of the famous Tudor king and asks us, “Is Henry truly the villain he is painted out to be?”
