Two writers of musical theatre are trying to pen a new show in this musical. To add to the meta mind scramble, they seem to be loosely based on Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, the creators of Why Am I So Single?
“Write what you know,” suggests their agent. That truism did not hold for Marlow and Moss’s stratospherically successful first collaboration when they were still at university. Their fantastically subversive and uplifting Tudor musical Six, featuring Henry VIII’s wives as rock stars reincarnate, remains a West End sensation.
