Six Announce United Queendom Drive In Tour

It's a great day for the United Queendom as the most famous ex wives in herstory have announced a tour. They survived beheadings (Well, they didn't but go with me on this) so a little thing like a global pandemic wasn't going to stop them telling their story.

The phenomenal success story which has seen productions on both the West end and Broadway will be embarking on a special tour of drive-in performances around 12 locations in the country in August and September.

Each show can be attended by 300 vehicles with a maximum of 7 people per car. There will also be an empty space next to each car so you can get out and get down with the Queens.

Shows will follow strict social distancing rules with large screens allowing those further back to see clearly.

The cast will be made up from a mix of the West end and touring productions. Dates are:

Milton Keynes National Bowl - 4th - 8th August. West end cast

This is a brilliantly creative way to keep shows going until theatres are safe to reopen. A few concerts have already had drive in dates on sale with some selling out instantly. Let's hope more shows follow suit.
