The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir is a fantastic work of history writing that dispels a lot of common legends and misconceptions about the famous wives. I decided to read it as I was seeing Six on Broadway with my mother—it was the second time I was seeing the show, and I wanted to dive deeper into the truth of the matter. It broke a lot of my misconceptions actually, and I found it really enlightening. First came Katherine of Aragon, of course, who I've always loved—what I didn't know is that by the time Henry decided to try and divorce her, they hadn't slept together for many years due to difficulty following one of her pregnancies, and it was clear she could no longer have children. His main motivation was a desperate need for a male heir, because he couldn't risk an uncertain succession on his death, which would certainly cause a civil war. Anne Boleyn was an ambitious, arrogant, and intelligent woman in the right place at the right time, but her bewitching of him was secondary to his growing indignation of needing to answer to the Pope and his need to solidify an heir. I didn't know that it took a full 7 years for Henry to be able to marry Anne Boleyn, or that she too had several miscarriages. Weir makes it clear that Anne never committed adultery, let alone plotted against the king. Anne was not a witch, not scheming against the king, and not an adulteress, but she was a vindictive woman who enjoyed murdering her enemies and who alienated too many of her allies, and that was ultimately her downfall. Weir’s analysis of the evidence we have and don't have is convincing, and throughout the book I was impressed by the way she conveys research and technical work without it becoming tedious.  I've always read of Jane Seymour as this demure lady, but Weir makes it pretty clear that she was actually extremely calculating, smart, and ambitious herself, and knew exactly what she was doing when she replaced Anne Boleyn and presented herself to the king as quiet, shy, modest. He loved her deeply, and would later be buried beside her. He was devastated after her death. Weir can't shed too much light on what the king hated so much about Anne of Cleves, and finds it fascinating that Anne was actually beloved of the people. She was perhaps the smartest of his wives, because when he suggested their marriage was invalid, she simply accepted it and agreed to all terms, ensuring his respect and her own survival. She would go on to have a happy and unprecedentedly independent life for a woman of her age, running an efficient household, minding her business, and befriending Henry's daughters. I feel deeply sorry for Katherine Howard, who was young and silly and arguably quite stupid. It's clear she was thrown into an intrigue she was too empty-headed to handle, and her affairs were extremely indiscreet. Obviously the king was gross, but he really loved Howard and believed her flattery of him, and so he was burned by her foolish betrayal. And then there's Katherine Parr, who set a new bar for women, making the learned woman fashionable, publishing books and becoming a mentor for young girls in court. She was intelligent and formidable, and when they tried to take her down in Henry's eyes, she gathered her resources and her wit and got herself out of it, something his other wives couldn't accomplish. All this to say that I learned a lot and have new perceptions of all six wives, and most surprisingly, of Henry VIII. Weir argues well that he wasn't just a lecher jumping from his wife to younger women but a tyrant considering the politics and fear of conspiracy, paranoia, and war, and the problems that would be caused by a weak succession. Still what we'd call a bad man, but not perhaps the stereotype of the never-satisfied, sex-obsessed wife killer that people tend to portray him as. His legacy isn't just his wives and his children, but also the reverberations of the debate and constant court intrigue between reformative Protestant and old-school Catholic politics in England that occurred during his reign.

❤️💚🤍💖💙💛🖤
So here’s a secret - my obsessions are my coping mechanisms. I’ve had many over the years, and each one holds a special place in my heart.
With the last of the OG Broadway queens leaving, I’m having some big feelings. I’m sure many of you are, as well. However, I think the new queens will do a phenomenal job, and bring their own unique style of each Queen.
While we do our best to treat the new queens with the respect and love they deserve (they did earn their spots), we also must remember to take care of ourselves and each other. Check in on your fellow Queens, Kings, and non-conforming Royals. The world is hard, but we have to be here for each other.
❤️💚🤍💖💙💛🖤

When to Play Songs to Ring in New Year/Hit Midnight:
(Use time.is for exact time. Use the SIX: Live on Opening Night for it to work! Each moment has been determined using the Most Replayed moment/what would sound nice!)
If you play Ex-Wives at 11:53:34, the New Year will ring in with SIX!
If you play No Way at 11:52:05, Adrianna/Aragon should sing There's No Way!
If you play The One You've Been Waiting For at 11:59:08, all the Queens sing Anne Boleyn and Andrea/Anne laughs!
If you play Don't Lose Your Head at 11:55:30, Andrea/Anne will sing Don't Lose Your Head! (Alternatively, if you want her I'm not sorry, start at 11:55:37!)
If you play Heart of Stone at 11:54:49, Abby/Jane will sing Heart of Stone. (Alternatively, if you want her Yeaaaaaahhhh, start at 11:55:53!)
If you play Haus of Holbein at 11:55:56, the Queens will sing Ze Haus of Holbein! (Alternatively, if you want the silence and then rave, start at 11:58:08!)
If you play Get Down at 11:55:55, Brit/Anna will sing I'm the Queen of the Castle, GET DOWN, YOU DIRTY RASCAL! (Alternatively, if you want when she says as he takes my fur, start at 11:58:14. Another one is when she does her opera, start at 11:57:00!)
If you play All You Wanna Do at 11:53:34, Sam/Katherine will sing I thought this time was Different. (Alternatively, if you want when she says But It's Never, Ever Different, [more specifically Different] start at 11:53:25! If you want when she ends her song with Mwah, start at 11:52:40!)
If you play I Don't Need Your Love at 11:56:21, Anna/Catherine will sing There's so much more! (Alternatively, if you want when she sings disappear, start at 11:55:36! If you want when she sings I don't need your love [to Henry], start at 11:57:19!)
If you play I Don't Need Your Love (Remix) at 11:59:22, the Queens will sing Tonight, I'm singing this for me! (Alternatively, if you want when all the Queens sing I don't need your love, start at 11:58:57! If you want Anna/Catherine to sing Love, start at 11:58:24!)
If you play SIX at 11:55:38, the New Year will ring in with We're Six! (The We're part will sing the SECOND the new year hits)
If you play Megasix at 11:57:35, the New Year will ring in with We're Six after all the Queens say Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived.
If you want the lovely Alternates Version of HOS, start at 11:56:47 to hear their Stone harmony!
If you want other songs/moments, just send me an ask and I'll quickly put it together! Some of these songs have been tested, and some have not. If you wanna test it out, go for it! Let me know if something's off and I'll change it!
Side note: Some songs accidentally hit the exact time a minute hits, completely unintentional. So yeah :D
EDIT: All songs have been tested and line stated should play at midnight or a few seconds off! Enjoy! Happy New Year All!
