Madrid, May 29, 2026. SIX, the global musical phenomenon that has conquered the West End, Broadway, and millions of fans around the world, is releasing a song in Spanish for the very first time. Ex-Wives / SIX is officially available on all digital platforms starting today.
Recorded by the new Spanish cast of SIX The Musical, the single serves as a first taste of the sound that the Queendom will bring to Spain ahead of its premiere at the Teatro Gran Vía in Madrid this September. In addition, the release marks a double milestone for musical theatre in Spain: the publication of both a single and an official music video before the premiere, as well as the world’s first official recording of this mash-up.
Ex-Wives / SIX is a Spanish-language mash-up of two of the musical’s biggest anthems, Ex-Wives and SIX; two key songs that capture the energy, humor, and irreverent attitude of this production created by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss. Explosive pop, electrifying harmonies, powerhouse vocals, and the spirit of a contemporary girl band come together in a song that captures everything SIXrepresents: six queens taking the microphone to reclaim their stories and rewrite them in their own voices.
More than a musical, SIX has become a cultural universe with a global fandom. Winner of two Tony Awards, including the Tony Award® for Best Original Score, and nominated for a Grammy Award, the phenomenon has amassed more than 5.5 billion global streams across digital platforms and over 1.6 million monthly listeners. Its original cast album, recently certified Platinum, confirms the impact of a soundtrack that has transcended the stage to become an international pop phenomenon.
With this release, SIX opens a new chapter in Spain and offers audiences a first glimpse of how one of the most celebrated productions in contemporary musical theatre will sound by the Spanish voices for the very first time.
Welcome to the Queendom!

This replica production of the original version arrives in Madrid in 2026, for the first time in Spanish, under the production of Julia Gómez Cora and Dmitry Bogachev, in association with Kenny Wax, Wendy and Andy Barnes, and George Stiles, and in collaboration with Grupo Smedia, operators of Teatro Gran Vía, one of Madrid’s most iconic venues.
