A performance of SIX, the pop concert-musical that retells the stories of the six wives of Henry VIII, was forced to take an unscripted pause during its run at Swansea Arena last night, after a member of the audience had a medical emergency. Staff at Swansea Arena have confirmed Thursday evening's performance of the smash hit British musical comedy was stopped for around five minutes, whilst medics attended a member of the audience who fell ill.
Fortunately, staff have since confirmed the person who fell ill is "fine" now and went home safely. They've praised other audience members for their patience whilst the show was halted, and have thanked the medics and doctors who rushed over and offered their help.
