Do you have any pictures of the flat Anne Boleyn boots?

I don't have any good ones, no. But here are photos of the flat boots and Boleyn boots, respectively:

(crystalledbyjane, _juliapulia, harrietwatson92)

Top row is UK style, bottom row is North American style; left is heels while right is flats. Note:

The lattice on the NA flats vs the crystal grid directly on the leather on the UK flats, both mirroring the heeled style from their respective regions

The embellished heels on the NA flats and lack of that on the UK flats. There’s been some variance in crystal placement on flat boots in both regions over the years, but this is the most consistent and recent trend.

You’ll also notice that the UK Boleyn squares there are 2x2 while NA are 3x3 - UK productions are now also standardized to 3x3.

The Boleyn flat boots cover the same style as the Seymour and Howard flats pictured there, but just with the Boleyn crystal pattern and colors.

It’s that time of year again… time to say goodbye to some of our Broadway queens!

Hailee, Leandra, Bella, Nasia, Zoe, Taylor and Holli’ will all be departing from the Broadway production December 3rd, after an incredible year long reign.

As of yet, Ayla/Aubrey/Kristina/Cassie are all due to stay post-change, though their roles are unconfirmed.

Wishing these queens all the best in their futures!

saw the new six broadway cast so here’s what I noticed

- aragon’s vocal style leans more towards shakira than beyoncé

- boleyn was very on the avril lavigne sk8r boi side and was very high energy and adorable

- seymour did a lot of beautiful riffing and it was so incredible she got like a full minute of applause after heart of stone

- cleves was also leaning more towards nicki minaj than rihanna with her vocal style which was really fun

- howard felt really young and naive and bubbly and was the first howard to actually make me cry during aywd

- parr just felt like really sincere in her acting like I know acting is supposed to be sincere but like there was something else to it

- they all had really tight harmonies and really precise dancing

On Bella Coppola's website she states that "she will be in the show for a year." Does this mean that the Broadway production has certainly shifted to the year-long contracts used in the West End after this most recent cast change?

Site linked here: https://www.bellacoppola.com/new-page-3

Yes! A few of these Bway cast members have specifically said that they’re on year long contracts. Of course that doesn’t mean everyone is and/or that things can’t change (contracts can be renewed for another year etc)

does anybody have a slime tutorial for SIX at this exact date and time: May 21, 2023, 7:00pm.

I was at that show in the front row, and I was wearing a really sparkly dress (which was quite lucky considering I hadn't planned that out) I was invited by Anna of Cleves during the show to stand up for a minute and dance a little (which was crazy!!!!) I want to see how much of a doofus I looked like! So if anybody has one uhhh. Please lemme know.

2022-23 Broadway Wigs

Starting off by mentioning that all the Six wigs are individually designed for their actors, with exact colors/textures/styles decided by what’s most flattering on the individual queen. That means that any new cast (especially in the US) could have totally new designs, new elements or colors/shades, or pre-existing elements but in a new combination. There are also times when wigs are totally standardized with the only change being the colors to match the individual queens’ hair (this is most commonly the case for Howard). And when I refer to US wigs or what’s typical for each role, I’m exclusively referring to mainland US (Broadway + tours). NCL is a totally different team and set of wigs.

There have also been quite a few changes between opening and the present. Anything that changes the overall look or design I’ll note, but anything in the vein of minor thinning or a very minor trim that isn’t particularly influential I won’t. Just know those things always happen a fair bit with new wigs.

Hailee Kareem Wright

Hailee has a full ombré wig in shades of dark browns. Middle part with Dutch braids on either side. It’s longer and with a flatter back and sides than many Aragon wigs.

US Aragon wigs have some of the most variance depending on the queen. This wig is definitely noticeably individualized for her (and I have to give the design team props for this, it’s definitely one of my favorite Six wigs). The basic design is near-identical to Bre Jackson’s wig with the ombré and Dutch braids, but it pretty significantly differs from Adrianna Hicks’, who had primarily black wigs with very dark brown highlights and no braids.

Leandra Ellis Gaston

First of all, a moment for the braids!!!! Truly was not expecting this and it was SUCH a welcome surprise.

Leandra has a full wig with hip-length box braids that are narrower at the front of the scalp but chunkier in the center back. Color mix is primarily black but has some very dark brown in there. Other than the braids(!!!) the middle part and space-buns are standard for US wigs.

Bella Coppola

This wig is actually very interesting. At first glance it’s a very typical Seymour wig but it’s a pretty significant departure from US Seymour wigs and more in line with UK: the beehive has only really been seen in UK (which I talked about here), both the US and UK used to use center parts but this past year the US has been using side parts, and US has typically shifted towards a shorter wig than Bella’s. Color is more unique too; most of the US (+NCL wigs) have had a little bit more of a red/strawberry/warm brown tone, while this one is more in line with the blondes popular in the UK (lot of factors here at play that I’ll get into another time). There’s still more of a golden tone than the more platinum that UK usually goes for, but it is overall more in line with UK.

They’ve also changed the wig slightly over time: the size of the beehive has been increased and it seems like there’s been a shift towards tighter curls rather than the usual looser curls it started with (which are more in line with we’ve been seeing from other US casts lately).

Nasia Thomas

Nasia’s wig has braids coming up from the sides and back to swoop into the top section that’s been left loose and to the right. Red highlights as (almost) always. It has been significantly thinned down with time (opening bottom right as opposed to top row from their performance a few weeks later).

The style is a significant change from Brittney Mack’s hair, who had her own braids with bleached highlights but no loose section and red added in only some of the time. The tour principals have had more of a mid range - braids up the sides/back and red highlights like Nasia, but the top section is still braids centered on the head rather a loose section to the side. The tour alts’ wigs all vary quite a bit with nothing identical but some similar elements.

Zoe Jensen

Very standard US Howard ponytail with nothing particularly new or notable. Pink dyes differ a bit from queen to queen but that’s really the only variance for her!

Taylor Iman Jones

Alright, here’s the one everyone’s been asking about. Taylor has a full black wig with some warm dark browns mixed in. She debuted a totally new hairstyle for Parr, completely different from anything we’ve seen before. At opening, the hair on the front right of her head was pulled over to the side and back, with all the hair on the left side of her face + the entire back bottom half down or to the side in loose curls. Since then they’ve thinned it out very substantially; the section on the left side of the face functions more like a ponytail (more like we’ve seen with Roxanne Couch’s old side ponytail wig or Sydney Parra’s wig) and the amount left loose at the bottom has been slimmed down.

A post on the alts (including Marilyn Caserta) will come a bit later - they haven’t all debuted and a few wig designs have been changing around.
