Happy Asian and Pacific Islander Month to the queens!!

It's that time of year again! Here in the US, May is Asian-American and Pacific Islander month and every year I make a post highlighting the Asian and Pacific Islander queens of Six worldwide! As of Abi Atchison's debut yesterday, we're officially at sixty-three(!!) Asian/Pacific Islander queens.

There may be additional info or queens missing, as it's only information I specifically have been able to verify. This list also doesn't encompass the full breadth of many queens' identities; many of them are of mixed race and ethnicity, or of several nationalities. For the sake of simplicity, I merely featured the specifics of their Asian/Pacific Islander identities and heritages in this post, but that post provides further details.

I recently met Jaz Robinson on the street (I am not ok!!!) and got the chance to ask some obscure costume questions. She says her entire costume including necklace, wig and boots is the same ones from Canada?! (I thought queens got new boots for second contracts) She has heeled and flat boots. Her Canadian crown was specifically hers but she doesn't know if her WE one is new or reused. Idk how much of this you already know, but it was so cool meeting her!! She's so kind 💛

It's awesome that you got to meet her! Pretty neat! Re: boots. They sometimes get new boots, but it's not necessarily a given. In her case there were no design changes that required new boots, and her Canadian contract was short enough (~9 months) that they likely weren't as worn down as the boots worn on a 1.5 year contract. There's also the consideration that the Six boots are rough to break in and an already broken-in pair may be preferable. Generally, I'd expect that they probably chose to keep them, with the possibility that she may get a replacement pair later in the run.

Calling all Six fans, what alternate/swing/standby/superswing/emergency cover queen have you seen and what role did they play. Repost this and tell your story.

The Six the musical 2024 covers - alternates, swings, rehearsal swings and emergency covers

End of the year means alts post and a new round of complaining about the fact that US (and Canada) alt promo photos are not always released. And last year of cruises which also means last time rehearsal alts show up in this.

people calling ‘swingo’ when us/canada alts complete their 3/4 covers really bugs me for some reason

Six 2024 Production Guide!

New year means new opportunities for chaos for Six! I got a lot of great reviews from my Boleyn Tour update post, so I thought I'd do another one for what we know about Six going into 2024 - by production!

West End

Current cast is contracted until February 2025, so no major cast change this year

Natalie Pilkington is set to return as Universal Swing after being away for Panto

So far, no change in the alternate system (no second/third covers or alt costumes), but that very well could change

Broadway

Current cast is contracted for a year, so likely a December cast change again

The remaining 2.0 alternates (Ayla, Aubrey, & Kristina) will leave on March 4th

It is unclear whether or not the 3 new alternates will join before or after the current alternates leave

Cassie will likely leave before the Broadway cast change, similar to Marilyn

The first sing-a-long will be on March 6th!

UK Tour

Cast change will occur around July

Shows are currently booked through 28 September

The current cast will perform in Germany & Switzerland from March to April

North American (Boleyn) Tour

Cast change will occur on April 14th (new cast starts April 16th), Adriana (and Wesley and possibly Cassie) will also be staying

Shows are currently booked through July 28th

Australia

A new Australia (and potentially Australasian) Tour will begin in August 2024.

Canada

It is unclear how long the Canadian Production will run, but the cast says they are contracted for a year. So we may or may not have a cast change, depending on if they get an extension or not

Maggie Lacasse (Seymour) is expected to return in January or February

NCL Bliss & Breakaway

Both cruises are on their final casts: Bliss 7.0 & Breakaway 6.0

Bliss will close around February 24th

Breakaway will close around January 26th

Great reminder that the Six the Musical Wiki is a great place to get information! It's constantly being updated with accurate and sourced information by myself and countless other users. Wishing everyone a great year both in and outside of Six!

If I had a nickel for every A/C/P cover who moved productions, added Boleyn to their covers, and became the dance captain of their respective production I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird that it happened twice.
