WEST END - Talented performers for SIX The Musical
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND ONLY SUBMIT IF SUITABLE
SIX the Musical will hold open auditions for the 2025/26 West End cast. Auditions will be held in Salford on 19 June and London on 21 June.
Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss's hit musical, which won two Tony Awards in 2022 and was nominated for five Olivier Awards, tells the herstory of the six wives of Henry VIII.
The musical debuted at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2018, before transferring to the West End's Arts Theatre in January 2019. It moved to the Lyric Theatre for a short run in 2020 and opened at the Vaudeville Theatre in November 2021.
The producers are looking for triple-threat singer/actor/dancers, who have great contemporary pop voices, good comedic instincts, and be able to interact with an audience well. Gigging experience is a plus and auditionees must be aged 18 or over.
Audition slots will be available to be booked online in advance. The open call will begin with a dance call and auditionees should bring a CV and headshot. They should also wear comfortable clothing and block heels for dance.
SIX has extended its booking period at the Vaudeville through to 4 May, 2025.
The musical has direction by Lucy Moss and Jamie Armitage, choreography by Carrie-Anne Ingrouille, set design by Emma Bailey, costume design by Gabriella Slade, lighting design by Tim Deiling, sound design by Paul Gatehouse, musical orchestration by Tom Curran, and musical supervision by Joe Beighton.
From Tudor queens to pop princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII finally take the mic to tell their tale, remixing five hundred years of her-storical heartbreak into a 80-minute celebration of sisterly sass-itude.
Sensational triple-threat singer/actor/dancers required to perform the SIX wives of Henry VIII as they reunite to tell their stories in the form of a pop concert. Must have great contemporary pop voices, good comedic instincts, and be able to interact with an audience well. Gigging experience is a plus.
SIX continues to be dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusivity throughout its casting processes.
This open call welcomes performers of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities to audition for this project.
