The exclusive VIP launch event, which took place at the historic Banqueting House on the site of the Palace of Whitehall built by Henry VIII, saw the Queens reunited with writers and directors, Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss three years after the release and was livestreamed on TikTok, allowing the Queendom to enjoy the action as it unfolded.
The new vinyl edition will be officially released next year, and viewers of the livestream were given the first opportunity to pre-order a copy.
As if that wasn’t exciting enough, the event also saw the Queens sing a never-seen-before performance of Six’s megamix and it was nothing short of special! Check it out below…
The Vinyl Launch marks the global success of its songs with over 450 million streams across all platforms and over 3 billion views on TikTok, making it the second highest streamed cast recording in the world, second only to Hamilton.
The West End’s new Queens: Amy Di Bartolomeo, Amanda Lindgren, Claudia Kariuki, Dionne Ward-Anderson, Tsemaye Bob-Egbe and Meesha Turner
