As the phenomenally successful “Six The Musical” continues its reign at London’s Vaudeville Theatre, producers have announced the new cast set to take the throne for the 2026-27 season. The popular musical, which gives voice to Henry VIII’s six wives, will welcome a fresh lineup of talented performers beginning February 24, 2026, with bookings now extended through January 2027.
Adrianne Langley will step into the role of Catherine of Aragon, coming directly from her run in “Titanique.” Marisha Morgan, previously seen in “Tina,” joins as Anne Boleyn, while Jessica Aubrey trades her “Wicked” credentials for the role of Jane Seymour. Freya Karlettis brings experience from “The Lion King” and the “Play On!” UK Tour to her portrayal of Anna of Cleves, and Leesa Tulley rounds out the queens as Katherine Howard. Nia Stephen will complete the royal lineup as Catherine Parr, bringing her powerful vocals to the final queen’s story.
The production has also assembled a strong team of alternates who will cover the main roles during absences. Tegan Bannister, whose credits include “Oliver!,” will alternate as Aragon and Cleves. Mary Elliott will cover Boleyn and Howard, while Ashlyn Weekes will alternate as Seymour and Parr.
The show’s Super Swing team sees Laura Baxter returning from the 2025 cast, joined by newcomers Gabs Boumford and Imogen Rose Hart. These versatile performers will support ensemble roles and understudy duties throughout the production’s run.
Music remains central to the show’s appeal, with Beth Jerem leading as Musical Director and keyboard player. The all-female band includes Alice Angliss on drums, Emma Jemima handling guitar duties, Kelly Morris on bass, and Annabelle Lee Revak serving as Assistant Musical Director.
Written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, “Six” has maintained its status as a home-grown musical sensation since 2019. The production’s journey from Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2017 to international acclaim showcases its enduring appeal. Under the direction of Moss and Jamie Armitage, with choreography by Carrie-Anne Ingrouille and set design by Emma Bailey, the production continues to attract audiences with its modern take on Tudor history. The continued success of the show has prompted organizers to add extra performances to accommodate the high demand for tickets.
