The Queens Are Coming

The spotlight shines on a stellar cast for the North American Tour Boleyn Company of SIX. Chani Maisonet reigns as Catherine of Aragon, with Gaby Albo as the cheeky Anne Boleyn, Kelly Denice Taylor as the soulful Jane Seymour, Danielle Mendoza as Anna of Cleves, Alizé Cruz as the playful Katherine Howard, and Tasia Jungbauer as the commanding Catherine Parr. Backed by powerhouse performers Taylor Sage Evans, Hailey Lewis, Carlina Parker, Caroline Siegrist, and Amaya White, this cast is ready to deliver a show-stopping spectacle.

With each queen commanding the stage, the audience is treated to a powerhouse performance blending pop, R&B, and historical commentary. This isn’t your average history lesson—it’s a full-throttle celebration of empowerment and individuality.

A Phenomenon Worth Losing Your Head Over

What makes SIX a global phenomenon? It’s not just the glittering costumes or the chart-topping soundtrack. SIX is a reclamation of history through a modern lens, giving a voice to women who were often defined by their relationships to a man. Each queen steps into the spotlight to tell her side of the story, resulting in a lively, unapologetic narrative that’s as inspiring as it is entertaining.

The Broadway production of SIX took home the Tony Award for Best Original Score, with tracks like “Ex-Wives,” “Don’t Lose Ur Head,” and “Get Down” quickly becoming fan favorites. It’s a pop-concert-meets-history-lesson you’ll be humming for weeks.
