Howard Coggins looks like Henry VIII. There’s no escaping that.
Stu McLoughlin doesn’t look like any of the wives, but he’s going to give it a go.
The Six Wives of Henry VIII, is a comic retelling of King Henry’s life, love and lusts. Expect lots of cross-dressing, dirty jokes and funny songs in this playful look at Tudor history you’ll never forget.
“Horrible Histories for grown-ups.”
– Fest
“Cleverly written, beautifully acted, and, dare I say it, educational. Howard and Stu are a double act to keep a beady eye on. Both actors perform with bounds of enthusiasm, wit and technical skill; their versatility and range is outstanding.”
– Bristol Evening Post
