Absolutely loved this at the Fringe. So glad it's doing well that they've extended it in town. I'm really hoping it'll return to the Fringe again next year because my other "local" stop is Glasgow which I don't think I'll be able to make, because my December is very busy, and I refuse to use Ticketmaster which is sadly the agent that the SECC use.

I've decided to bite the bullet and go see this in Glasgow too. I want to see Natalie as Jane Seymour as Grace was on last time, and I just generally need to see the show again. There are tickets available at £11 in the back row, but it's a small venue so I don't think it'll matter being that far back.

Oh she was HILARIOUS, it'll be worth it. I'm sure the swing lady was fab too - how amazing must she be to do all 6 roles! But Jane Seymour was so funny when I saw it, I loved how her dancing was always slightly off and her jokes were terrible, and she kept getting a bit hysterical.

I'm so excited to see this tomorrow night!
I'm intrigued to see how well it does in London, especially with this extension. It seems to have alot of repeat fans visiting throughout its various runs, and the first two performances sold out, and no doubt this weekend will be sold out too by the time the show starts. It appears to be a real hit that hopefully will continue its success. I'd even bet if it continues its scuess, we may well see it in a longer London run next Summer, at the Arts again maybe?

I've managed to convince my friend to go on a day trip gallivanting around Glasgow with me to see my new favourite musical! Second row, just like when I saw it in Edinburgh.
(One thing that annoys me is the SEC using Ticketmaster. Can you not have your own system instead of having those awful ripoff fees and no option for box office collection?)
Edit: Just noticed I'm a Senior Member now. When did this happen?!?

The only offer I've seen for the regional venues is from a flyer they were giving out at the Fringe, and if you use the code UNDERBELLY, that'll get you Edinburgh prices to see the show, on limited dates:
Arts - Aug 30th-Sept 9th
Kingston - Oct 31st-Nov 1st
Southampton - November 13th-15th
Salford - December 4th-7th
Glasgow (use code UNDERB) - December 20th-21st

Caught this this afternoon and had a BALL. It’s absolutely bonkers, but the energy on that stage is infectious and the (full house) audience were going crazy by the end.
Those girls are stars and had the audience eating out of the palm of their hands. I can’t wait to go back again!

I caught this afternoon and am really pleased I did. It's a great concept and has some really catchy numbers in it and is very different to anything I've seen.
Huge standing ovation from the audience afterwards, with the actors and musicians obviously genuinely pleased with the reaction (I guess this would have been the second performance?).
For me, this still would benefit from some work and some edits/re-writes - which would probably make it worthy to a bigger West End theatre and a longer run. I thought it ran out of steam for a while about 2/3 of the way through, and perhaps changing one of the queen songs might help. I also thought the ending was a bit clunky and rushed. I'd also like another song sung by all of the queens half-way through.
But that said, it was great and really fun and different and well deserving of the reaction. Let's hope it sees a life beyond what's been currently announced.

Loved this today! Like getting a GCSE history lesson from Little Mix 😂 great songs, great choreography, great voices. Standing ovation at the end.
Having had the misfortune of sitting through Guy The Musical a couple of days ago, Six has gone some way to restore my faith in new musical writing!!

I was there reviewing it for the press night. They're really not going to like me 😂 Six was great though. I'd love a cast recording at some point, the girls were fantastic. |

Having had the misfortune of sitting through Guy The Musical a couple of days ago, Six has gone some way to restore my faith in new musical writing!! Yesterday I saw ‘Guy’ at 1pm followed by ‘Six’ at 4pm and ‘Fun Home’ at 7:30pm. I’m SO glad Guy was the first show of the day - it was truly excruciating. Seeing ‘Six’ immediately afterwards saved me from vowing never to visit a theatre ever again. |

The secret at the Lowry, and maybe some of the other venues, is to type UNDERBELLY as Underbelly. |

What's the verdict on the back row of the circle slips? Worth a punt?

J17 is worth a try if you can't get anything on the front row for the same money. It is beside, rather than behind a pillar, so you may lose a tiny bit, but it really isn't bad. and this moments there is nothing cheaper in previous row . and 12 pounds i is not really that much booking is done. We will see  |

Finally got to see this last night, really enjoyed it. Took a gamble on one of the £6 back row slip seats and what a steal that was, hardly missed anything due to the nature of the staging. I went in not knowing much about the show through choice, wasn't necessarily what I expected but I liked it, debating going back again in a few weeks.

I saw this yesterday and thought it was crazy, sassy, hilarious and immediately came out and rebooked. The music is so catchy and I can't wait for more songs to be released. Everyone had such a great time - the cast and the audience. I can't wait to see it again!

I've opted to see this at Kingston as given the choice, I couldn't face the awful auditorium at the Arts. I did try the offer code but it actually made tickets more expensive; instead, I'm very happy with my aisle seat at the rear of the stalls (not far back at this venue) for £15.

I also saw this last night (new writing day with Eugenius and Six!). What a show! If it’s eligible I can seeing this winning the Best entertainment Olivier award.
Great music, great performances and very imaginative.

I'm seeing this again at the Lowry in December, and I'm sooooo tempted to buy more tickets for the evening of the same day, and go twice.

Seeing reports on Facebook that the full cast recording has been released on Spotify. Can still only see 3 songs on Apple Music at the moment, hoping they'll add the rest there too soon!
