Bringing Stories to Life Together. One Stage at a Time.

“Wait… will we only be doing this in Horsham?”
Absolutely not, your majesty!

We’re bringing the crown to Kingston and Basingstoke this September—because one town just isn’t enough for all this royal energy.

Get ready for more stages, more sparkle, and more chances to rewrite herstory with us.

Encore Theatre Productions is expanding—so whether you’re near Horsham, Kingston, or Basingstoke, your time to shine is coming.

#SIXTheMusical #EncoreOnTour #HerstoryHitsTheRoad #KingstonQueens #BasingstokeBeheads #EncoreEverywhere

Not quite one of the Six queens… but definitely a leading voice in our story.

Meet Amy Matthews – professional performer, teacher, mum, and one of the hearts behind everything we do.

Amy trained at Italia Conti, then Mountview, before graduating from PPA in Guildford – which she now calls home. She’s performed in productions like Closer to Heaven with the Pet Shop Boys, Bat Out of Hell, and Get It On, toured the world with Celebrity Cruises, and even lent her voice to some very quirky TV ads.

And the performing hasn’t stopped — Amy still works professionally in theatre when she can, balancing stage life with family and her deep commitment to helping the next generation find their own path in the arts.

Through The Place Theatre Schools (Surrey & Hampshire), Little Voices West Surrey, and Amy Matthews Management, Amy aims to give young performers experiences that reflect how the industry really works — from casting calls and warm-ups to creating a rehearsal room culture built on teamwork, respect, and mutual support.

Because a great production isn’t just about talent — it’s about a cast that listens, lifts each other up, and grows together. That’s the kind of magic Amy continues to help build on and off the stage.

For us, it’s not just about performing — it’s about preparing performers to thrive.

“Listen up, let us tell you a story…”
Not just history—herstory.

Our cast isn’t here to blend in. They’re here to SLAY—like, divorced, beheaded, and absolutely live.
Every queen in our Encore Theatre Productions lineup has a voice, a crown, and a tale to tell—and trust us, you’ll want front-row seats for this royal rewrite.

From heartbreak to mic drops, from Tudor drama to show-stopping glamour—these queens are ready to remix the past and belt out the truth, one fierce note at a time.

So grab your throne (or a ticket), and get ready for a night of sass, sisterhood, and seriously regal vibes.

#SIXTheMusical #EncoreQueens #HerstoryRemixed #BowDown #TudorTwist #QueensOnStage #RehearsalRoyalty

Shimmy in. Show up. Stand out.
The queens are back—and rehearsal is where the crown starts to shine.

At Encore Theatre Productions, we don’t just walk into the room—we make an entrance. Rehearsals for SIX the Musical are officially underway, and our cast is already serving vocals, power, and royal-level presence.

Every beat, every harmony, every shimmy counts. This isn’t just another show—it’s a revolution on stage.

Divorced. Beheaded. Live.

Let’s make history—again.

From fierce vocals to full-on drama, this lot isn’t just rewriting history… they’re singing it in harmony (and high notes)!

Crowns on. Mics up. The Queens have arrived.
👑🎤🔥✨

And now, a little cheeky tribute to the legends themselves…

⸻

A Right Royal Rhyme
Six fierce Queens, stepping into the light,
Serving drama and vocals, from morning to night.

Catherine of Aragon 👑 – no one says “divorce” with such flair,
Sings her truth with power — don’t even dare to stare!

Anne Boleyn 💋 – with a wink and a twist,
Flips the script — “Sorry not sorry” tops her list!

Jane Seymour 🌸 – sweet but don’t be fooled,
She’ll melt your heart, then leave you schooled.

Anna of Cleves 💃 – with her royal strut,
Owns the stage — and every royal hut!

Katherine Howard 💅 – brings the flirt and fire,
With a hair flip, she lights the choir.

Catherine Parr 🧠 – calm but she’s in command,
Drops the mic with wisdom — QUEEN of the stand!

So here’s to the SIX — bold, brilliant, divine,
Each one a star, each moment a shine! ✨

Meet our Mistress of Melody – Maisie Humphries
Vocal Director | she/her
🎤✨

Maisie is a graduate of PPA drama school and a total musical theatre queen 👑. Her obsession with SIX started when she saw the show on its first UK tour with her sister—cue non-stop Megamix singalongs ever since!

Since graduating, Maisie has taught singing, dance, and drama at various performing arts schools, while also performing professionally—most recently starring as Cinderella in a magical panto season ✨.

She’s passionate about helping performers find their voice, grow in confidence, and most importantly, have fun doing it.

When she’s not in the rehearsal room, she’s a proud cat mum 🐱, book lover 📚, and full-on Swiftie 🎶.

Maisie is SO excited to join the SIX: Teen Edition realm and can’t wait to slay the stage with this fierce cast!

👑✨ Six The Musical is HERE to make you groove, laugh, and sing! Ready to meet the Queens? 💃🏼🎤 Here’s a fun rhyme to get you in the mood:

⸻

Catherine of Aragon stands tall and strong,
Her anthem’s like Beyoncé, it’s fierce and long!
“No Way” she’ll say, with pride and might,
A queen who won’t back down, she’ll fight the fight.

⸻

Anne Boleyn is bold, with a twist of sass,
Ariana Grande’s pop vibes she’ll surpass.
“Don’t Lose Your Head” - a tune so sweet,
She’s got the moves, she’s got the beat!

⸻

Jane Seymour is gentle, with a heart of gold,
Her song’s like Adele, full of stories untold.
“Heart of Stone” will make you feel,
A queen whose love is oh-so-real.

⸻

Anna of Cleves is fun and carefree,
Like Madonna, she’s wild and full of glee.
“Get Down” she says, no time to waste,
Living her life with no love to chase.

⸻

Catherine Howard is young, naive, and bright,
Kylie Minogue brings her pop to life.
“All You Wanna Do” - a fun, flirty jam,
But beware, her fate’s not what you’d plan.

⸻

Catherine Parr is wise, strong, and bold,
Lady Gaga vibes, full of stories untold.
“I Don’t Need Your Love,” she’ll sing with pride,
A queen who’s fierce, with nothing to hide!

⸻

✨ BEHIND THE SCENES MAGIC ✨

What you see on stage is only the tip of the iceberg! 🎭 There’s so much happening behind the scenes to make every production come to life, and we’re here to give you a peek into that process.

Casting: It starts with choosing the perfect cast, carefully selecting each actor to bring the characters to life. A small cast brings its own challenges, but it’s what makes our shows so unique and personal.

Costumes: From the very first fitting to the final details, our costume team works tirelessly to ensure each piece is just right. It’s all about small touches that make the experience feel authentic and immersive.

Small Touches for a Big Experience: Every prop, every set detail, every moment is thoughtfully considered to make sure we’re giving the audience something special. It’s the little things that turn a good show into an unforgettable one.

Licensing the Show: Behind the curtain, we’re working with licensing companies to make sure we have the legal rights to produce the show you love. Every detail counts.

Teching the Show: When it’s time for tech rehearsals, we work on lighting, sound, set changes, and making sure every technical aspect supports the story being told on stage.

Audition Prep: And of course, we spend countless hours preparing for auditions, making sure everything runs smoothly, and giving each actor the best chance to shine.

It’s a team effort from start to finish, and we couldn’t do it without our incredible cast, crew, and creatives! 🌟

Stay tuned, and we can’t wait to share the magic with you.

For any questions, feel free to reach out to us at hello@encoretheatreproductions.com.

✨ TECH REHEARSAL DETAILS ✨

As we get closer to showtime, we’ll be heading into tech rehearsals — one of the most exciting parts of the process! 🎭✨

What to Expect:
• Lighting and sound cues will be set, and you’ll work with the team to ensure everything runs smoothly.
• We’ll also rehearse all set changes and get used to the flow of the show with the full tech setup.
• These rehearsals are key for bringing everything together — choreography, harmonies, and script will all come to life with the technical elements.

Our three creatives will be there guiding the way, and we’re excited to see how all the hard work from rehearsals translates to the stage. 🌟

If you have any questions or need more information, please reach out to us at hello@encoretheatreproductions.com.

Get ready to make some stage magic happen!

#TechRehearsal #TheatreLife #EncoreTheatre #BehindTheScenes #Showtime

✨ REHEARSAL DETAILS ✨

Once you’re cast, the real work begins! 🎭💪 We’re thrilled to dive into rehearsals with all of our talented cast members.

Rehearsal Schedule:
• Two hours per week for the entire term
• Full Sunday rehearsals (you’ll have the weekend to really dive deep!)

During these rehearsals, you’ll be learning everything from choreography to singing harmonies and of course, memorizing your script. It’s going to be an exciting journey, with plenty of challenges and growth along the way.

We are excited to welcome new faces and work alongside our three amazing creatives who will guide you every step of the way. Together, we’ll make something truly special. 🌟

For any questions or more information, feel free to reach out to us at hello@encoretheatreproductions.com.

✨ AUDITION DETAILS & NEXT STEPS ✨

What happens after the audition?
After auditions, we will be reaching out to everyone — whether or not you’ve been selected for the next phase. Please note that it may take up to two weeks for us to finalize our decisions.

As much as we’d love to cast everyone, due to the nature of our company, we’re only able to take a small cast. This means the process is highly competitive, and we always strive to make decisions that stay true to the authenticity of our productions.

We appreciate your patience and understanding! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at hello@encoretheatreproductions.com.

Good luck to everyone, and we can’t wait to see you at the auditions! 🌟
