The Play:

A seance in a deserted classroom at midnight; six schoolgirls summon the spirits of Catherine Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anna of Cleeves, Katherine Howard, and Katherine Parr.

A new musical renegotiating the collective memory of the wives of Henry the Eighth. Through music the spirits have returned to exorcise their memory away from victimhood and claim agency over their stories.
