SIX: The Musical marked its fifth full year on Broadway over the weekend. In a curtain speech October 3, cast member (and original West End queen) Natalie Paris told the audience: “It’s nearly two million Broadway and nearly six million North American audience members … and the Queendom worldwide who have gotten us this far,” she said. “You still have three more months to take your crowning glory and see Six on Broadway before our final performance on January 3.”
Even though SIX played its first performance at the Lena Horne Theatre on February 13, 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown kept the show from officially opening until October 3, 2021. As such, October 3, 2026 marked the show’s fifth anniversary. To celebrate, see the Queens who have worn the crown in the Toby Marlow-Lucy Moss musical below with a very special “MegaSix” gallery below.
The cast currently features Khaila Wilcoxon as Catherine of Aragon, Chloe Tucker Caine as Anne Boleyn, Natalie Paris as Jane Seymour, Olivia Donalson as Anna of Cleves, Aimie Atkinson as Katherine Howard, and Stephanie Jae Park as Catherine Parr. The company also includes Lauryn Adams, Aryn Bohannon, Maggie Likcani, and Aiyana Smash as alternates.
While making their Broadway debuts, Paris and Atkinson can also be seen in SIX The Musical Live!, a live capture film released by Universal Pictures Content Group and recorded at the Vaudeville Theatre, London, with the original West End Queens reprising their roles. The film was released in U.S. and Canadian cinemas August 14.

The musical, which debuted at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, is the winner of 35 international awards, including the 2022 Tony Award for Best Original Score (Music and Lyrics) and the Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Musical.
