DIVORCED ★ BEHEADED ★ LIVE! The crowning glory of Broadway, the West End and beyond, the international smash hit musical SIX makes its royal return to Northampton following its previous sell out success! Winner of over 35 international awards including the Tony Award for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design’, double winner of the Whatsonstage Award for ‘Best West End Show’ and a Gold-Disk winning album, this sell-out Tudor take-off has ‘an incredibly strong and powerful message’ (The Australian) and is ‘pure entertainment’ (New York Times). From Tudor Queens to Pop Princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st century girl power. These Queens may have green sleeves but their lipstick is rebellious red. Think you know the rhyme, think again… Divorced. Beheaded. LIVE! ACCESS ENHANCED PERFORMANCES Audio Described & Touch Tour – Wed 13 May 6pm (Touch Tour begins at 5pm) This performance will be audio described by Talking Theatre. BSL Interpreted – Thu 14 May 8pm This performance will be BSL Interpreted. Please click here for Access Information
The Theatre Chipping Norton and Selladoor Worldwide present Reduced Shakespeare Company in The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged) by Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfield. The Theatre Chipping Norton and Selladoor Worldwide present a new version of the West End classic – rebooted and reimagined for 2026. All 37 plays. Three actors. One wildly funny show. The worldwide comedy hit returns with a brand-new, updated version of The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged), a fast, furious and gloriously absurd sprint through all of the Bard’s tragedies, comedies and histories. Expect Hamlet performed backwards, Titus Andronicus as a YouTube cooking tutorial, and all of the History plays turned into a chaotic football match where the crown is kicked from king to king. Throw in lightning-fast costume changes, sword fights, outrageous improvisation and the result is a wildly inventive and hilarious celebration of Shakespeare. After nine years in London’s West End, two TV specials and performances in over 20 countries, the Reduced Shakespeare Company bring their legendary Shakespeare spoof to a new generation of audiences.
