⭐ CARLY MERCEDES DYER TO JOIN UK TOUR CAST OF SIX THE MUSICAL ⭐
Carly Mercedes Dyer will join the UK touring cast of Six, it has been announced.
Dyer, known for her roles in The View Upstairs, West Side Story and Ain’t Misbehavin’, will play the role of Jane Seymour, in Salford from November.
The touring cast includes Lauren Drew (Catherine of Aragon), Maddison Bulleyment (Anne Boleyn), Carly Mercedes Dyer (Jane Seymour), Shekinah McFarlane (Anna of Cleves), Jodie Steele (Katherine Howard) and Athena Collins (Catherine Parr), with Alternates Jennifer Caldwell, Cassandra Lee and Harriet Watson. The Queens are backed by the show’s all female band The Ladies in Waiting.
From Tudor Queens to Pop Princesses, the six wives of Henry VIII take to the mic to tell their tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into a 75-minute celebration of 21st century girl power. These Queens may have green sleeves but their lipstick is rebellious red.
Six the Musical is written by Toby Marlow & Lucy Moss.
The show has also revealed plans to perform at the Mayflower Theatre in Southampton for two weeks from 20th – 31st January, with socially distanced seating and safety systems in place.
FABULOUS! ! ! She’s going to make a fantastic Queen! ! !
