You don’t have to wait until Broadway reopens to get a taste of what’s playing. Beyond the obvious — the movies of “Moulin Rouge!,” “Mean Girls,” “West Side Story” — here are a few things to watch and read to tide you over during the coronavirus pandemic.

Divorced, beheaded, died; divorced, beheaded, survived. In this buzzy new British import, Henry VIII’s six wives compete to see who got the worst of him. Read it: Historical novelist Philippa Gregory has taken a keen interest in royal wives.

Her 2015 book “The Taming of the Queen” imagines what life was like for Catherine (or, as she spells it, Kateryn) Parr who, when she wasn’t holding horny old Henry at bay, tried to save Protestantism while romancing a member of the king’s court.
