Kenosha Unified School District (KUSD) has announced KUSD Theatre's upcoming presentation of 'Six: The Musical,' a pop-inspired retelling of the story of Henry VIII’s six wives. This announcement was made in a press release on April 7, 2025.

According to the press release, KUSD Theatre will present "Six: Teen Edition" at Bradford High School on April 4, 2025, at 7:00 PM CDT, with doors opening at 6:30 PM. The performance features assigned seating and is open to all ages. Tickets are priced at $15 for general admission and $10 for seniors, students, and staff. They are available for online purchase until April 4 at 9:00 PM CDT, with a print-at-home option for easy entry.

KUSD's theater arts education begins in elementary school with musical and operatic productions and continues through middle and high school with both curricular and extracurricular performances. The district states that the 2024-25 KUSD Theater program has assigned roles to all auditioning students, advising them to check cast lists carefully. Those interested in stage management or crew positions can still apply. Additional auditions for non-musical plays will occur throughout the school year.

Bradford High School serves grades 9-12 with over 1,500 students and 145 faculty members. According to its website, the school's improvement plan aims for a 12% performance increase over three years by aligning instruction with grade-level standards, using assessment data to enhance teaching, and implementing behavior management systems. The school follows an "Every Kid, Every Day" motto, emphasizing student support through a freshman academy, intervention programs, and diverse academic offerings including over a dozen Advanced Placement courses.

The Kenosha Unified School District was established in 1967 and serves the City of Kenosha, Village of Pleasant Prairie, and the Town and Village of Somers in southeastern Wisconsin. It operates numerous educational institutions including elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, charter schools, choice schools, a specialty school, and a Head Start center. The district reports a total enrollment of 19,069 students with an annual operational expenditure of approximately $304 million.
