SUMMARY:SIX: The Musical
DESCRIPTION:DIVORCED ★ BEHEADED ★ LIVE! \nThe 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! \nWinner 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). \nFrom 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. \nThink you know the rhyme\, think again… \nDivorced. Beheaded. LIVE! \n\nACCESS ENHANCED PERFORMANCES \nAudio Described & Touch Tour – Wed 13 May 6pm (Touch Tour begins at 5pm)\nThis performance will be audio described by Talking Theatre. \nBSL Interpreted – Thu 14 May 8pm\nThis performance will be BSL Interpreted. \nPlease click here for Access Information

SUMMARY:The Rise & Fall of Little Voice
DESCRIPTION:White Cobra Theatricals proudly presents The Rise and Fall of Little Voice\, Jim Cartwright’s Olivier Award-winning modern classic.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShy and reclusive LV spends her days locked away in her bedroom\, finding solace in her father’s old records. But when she opens her mouth to sing\, something extraordinary happens: the powerful voices of countless divas pour out. \nWhen a sleazy talent scout hears her gift however\, LV is thrust into a spotlight she never asked for\, much to the annoyance of her brash\, larger-than-life mother. \nAs dreams clash with desperation\, Little Voice must find the courage to speak—and sing—for herself. \nFunny\, raw and heartbreakingly human! Don’t miss this bittersweet tale that celebrates the magic of music and the fight to be heard. \nThis amateur production of “The Rise and Fall of Little Voice” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. On behalf of Samuel French Ltd. www.concordtheatricals.co.uk
