Canadian cast announced for Tony-winning musical “SIX,” headed to Toronto’s Royal Alexandra Theatre

The hit Broadway musical “SIX” is coming to Toronto’s Royal Alexandra Theatre in September — with an all-new cast for the Canadian production playing Henry the VIII’s six wives, and the “Ladies In Waiting” band backing them up. The show — which won 23 awards in the 2021/22 Broadway season, including at Tony for Best Original Score (Music and Lyrics) — was written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss when they were students for Cambridge University’s Musical Theatre Society. The musical comedy is a modern retelling of the lives of England’s King Henry VIII’s wives, but it isn’t your typical history lesson. Starring as Henry VIII’s wives are: Jaz Robinson as Catherine of Aragon, Julia Pulo as Anne Boleyn, Maggie Lacasse as Jane Seymour, Krystal Hernández as Anna of Cleves, Elysia Cruz as Katherine Howard, and Lauren Mariasoosay as Catherine Parr. It then travels to Toronto’s Royal Alexandra Theatre where it plays from Sept. 23 to Dec. 17, 2023.
