There are 9 on Amazon. Are there more on stage? I checked Ibdb and it lists 9 also.

Would side wall seats be an issue. I see some at $109. I assume most action is center front stage.

Listening to the sample on amazon, I’m almost inclined to skip the show completely. I’m sure it will be done regionally in a year or two.

Saw the show in London in June, my program lists 10 songs including a Mega-mix. I paid 40 pounds for the ticket, about $52. Loved the show, the women were fantastic, very high energy. Not sure I want to see it here at Broadway prices, I really think this show should be off-Broadway. I guess time will tell.

Seems like similar type shows.

I haven't seen SIX yet, but ALTAR BOYZ had quite a lot of dialogue in it, and also a sort of a "plot," if not a very strong one. So I'm not sure I see the similarity.

Yes, very much so. The theatre I saw it in reminded me of one of the larger New World Theatre stages.

9 Sounds right. Each queen has a solo, plus the opening/closing numbers and "House of Holbein" - that makes 9. There's also a megamix included in the 70 minute run time - so you're actually getting about 65 minutes of new material.

The show is a fun, high energy concert dependent wholly on the vocal gymnastics of the cast. The book is, in some places, cringeworthingly bad. A series of "jokes" centered around the one or two character traits we learn about each woman - so prepare for a lot of "I DIED IN CHILDBIRTH" or "I LOST ME HEAD MATE!" jokes.

That all being said... I've seen it twice.

Based on what I've heard, you should bring your earplugs.

for god's sake don't pay any more than 100 bucks. You can sit anywhere. Theatre is small/medium. Set doesn't change.
