    I’ve seen this live and I loved it, and you’re right. This is the third song, so you’ve missed a bit of british context. This is meant to be Anne Bolynn (can’t remember how to spell it 😂), his second wife. She’s the reason Henry split England from the Catholic Church (he wanted to marry her and the Church wouldn’t give him a divorce from his first wife). She was the first of his wives to be beheaded. In the UK we have a rhyme to remember his the order of wives. Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived). If you wanna keep going I’d suggest you start with the opening number - Ex-Wives 😊 Great reaction btw!

    The play doesn't get too far into the details of who's who and how everything happened - it was written for a British audience, so most of the facts that you get tend to be closer to interesting, lesser known things? What you should really know to get the basic understanding of SIX's structure is the "Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived" that describes how Henry VIII got rid of his wives.
    You should definitely listen to more of the songs, they are fantastic - each of the queens has their own & a few more group numbers.

    Mr Curve Man: I don't know much about the kings
    Horrible Histories: Would you like a little ditty about all the English kings and queens since William I that there have been?
    And to answer one of your questions, there's a poem about the six queens that goes - divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived. Anne (Boleyn) was the first queen to be beheaded and Katherine (Howard) was the other queen to be beheaded. They were both beheaded for their promiscuity, Anne cheating on Henry and Katherine doing the do out of wedlock, while Catherine (of Aragon) was divorced because Henry wanted to be with Anne (Boleyn) and Anne (of Cleves) was divorced because Henry thought she was ugly. Finally, Jane (Seymour) died just days after giving birth to her son and Katherine (Parr) outlived Henry.
    Couple of weird things that you'll notice about his marriages: half of his wives died (Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Katherine Howard) while their marriage was still active, half of his wives were related (the same three previously mentioned, they were all cousins/second-cousins), half of his wives had children (Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour), and half of his wives were called C/Katherine

      Anne never cheated on Henry, he and Crowells lied so Henry could marry Jane Seymour, Anne never wanted to be married to Henry in the first place. She was in love with her bethrothed, but she also was one Kathetine's handmaid. Henry saw her and started to stalk and harass her. She even runaway from the court to escape him but he continued, wrote her letters. In her responses, Anne saud she didn't to be a mistress so Henry decided to make her queen and divorced Katherine. From then, he abused Anne until she was executed.
      For Katherine Howard, she was raped before her wedding to Henry so she wasn't "pure" and they use this to executed her.

    The Context :
    Basically when Henry the VIII was still married to Katherine of Aragon his first wife he fell in love with Anne Boleyn and decided to try to divorce Katherine of Aragon by making his own Church and divorcing Katherine and Marrying Anne in the process and Henry wanted a Son to be next Heir but Katherine Aragon can't have another child since they already have Mary also known as Bloody Mary and after Henry Married Anne they got busy and soon Anne was pregnant but only gave birth to a girl AHEM Queen Elizabeth the I Anne had the choice to make Elizabeth forfeit the throne or Elizabeth still gets to be Queen by the cost of Anne's life of being Beheaded and so she had to sacrifice herself for her dear Daughter Elizabeth the I and so Henry had to make a Rumor on how she flirted with some other men and being involved in incest with her own brother as an excuse to execute her but at least that's how I remembered it

      Oh God, nevermind, everyone else in the comments is saying"React to west end it's better!" So you're actually the LEAST rude about it. Let me say, if you're American, you'll like the Broadway one more, most of their fans aren't and so they lie and say the Broadway cast is bad, it's just bad for them because it's not what they're used to. Trust me, i watched the west end first and it was the worst decision of my life, I just... Didn't get it as well as I did with the broadway version. Basically what I'm saying is, if you're American, don't listen to them, watch the Broadway ver.

    • @WhedonianPotterhead
      @WhedonianPotterhead 4 роки тому +8

      I'd never do that on someone's own video but when someone is reacting to something (especially something they've never seen before) then there's nothing wrong with suggesting alternate version of it.
      There's no guarantee an American will prefer the Broadway version or that a British person will prefer the West End version; a lot of people connect to the first one the were exposed to but that's not the same for everyone. I personally prefer the West End cast but I'd never tell people they were wrong for liking another version and say people are lying and saying the American version is bad...if they are saying the words it's bad then that's wrong but if they're saying they prefer West End or think West end is better then there's nothing wrong with that. We all have opinions and preferences and that's fine, you carry on watching Broadway clips and I'll carry on listening to the West End cast...its all good

    Personally this is my least favourite six song (unpopular opinion) because it portrays Anne Boleyn as a ditz and kind of silly rather than it being as deep as some of the other songs. There is a really cool version of Ex-Wives/Six that was done in lockdown though which involved the West end, Broadway, Australian, uk tour and cruise ship casts all coming together

    • @xdinaryheroesluv
      @xdinaryheroesluv 4 роки тому +19

      Yeah, Boleyn was definitely turned into the comic relief character, which is disappointing because she really did have issues in her life. Unfortunately though, most of their lives were sad, and if every song was sad the musical would just be depressing and unenjoyable.

    • @nicolelouise9779
      @nicolelouise9779 4 роки тому +18

      I also feel like they changed her up a bit due to her popularity in history. Boleyn is most well known as this conniving witch/temptress who charmed the King and paid the price for her head, who gave birth to Elizabeth ii; the most well known ruler. They even poked fun about it with Boleyn's intro where she was the only one people cared about and probably the only queen they remembered the name to if they aren't a history nerd, so what the audience expected was this super smart and conniving Boleyn, but got a kinda ditzy, kinda smart, super bitter about her beheading Boleyn which I'm not upset about since it's still pretty funny.

    (3 weeks late but) The context is given within the musical itself - they provide just enough exposition and context for even someone who doesn't know a second of the history of Henry VIII and his wives to know what's going on (like me - I walked into this musical knowing nothing and now thanks to falling straight down the rabbithole I know a lot more about the history than most people).
    If you're going to listen to more Six, the song Ex-Wives gives some of the exposition you'll need for the other songs.

    I hope someone filled you in. Song is so good when you know a little of the background.
    Here’s a very watered down quick explanation, just in case. Henry VIII wanted Anne Boleyn so bad but the Pope wouldn’t let him get divorced. His first wife wouldn’t give him an annulment, so Henry split from the Roman Catholics & formed COE (Church of England…Protestant) basically making himself the head of the Church. So Anne Boleyn had a HUGE IMPACT on history! Oh and Anne Boleyn was the mother of Queen Elisabeth 👑
    I hated history in HS but love it now. Hope it helped a little.

    They do, they even use the child rhyme that, as an American with very limited knowledge of the subject, I think school children use to keep them all strait, “Divorced, beheaded, died, divorced, beheaded, survived,” she the first one who got beheaded, so the song is about the comedic irony of “don’t loose your head,” since that’s what exactly what happened to her.

So Anne Boleyn chose death. Intern giving Britain one of our greatest monarchs. She says you're welcome by the way.
    Also her and the first queen (Catherine of Aragon) were both with King Henry at the same time.

In the first episode, Henry nearly dies in an accident; he realizes that if he were to die without a male heir, England could be plunged into chaos. This becomes an obsession of his, and he and a bunch of other people end up doing a bunch of horrible things as a result.
