THE INTERNATIONAL SMASH HIT MUSICAL SIX ANNOUNCES NEW CAST FOR UK & CHINA TOUR 2026
The multi award-winning musical SIX,written by Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss, today announces a new cast for its 2026 UK and China tour. The new company will take over from Wednesday 15 July, opening at the Churchill Theatre in Bromley, before touring across the UK until 26 September. The production will then embark on a 12-week tour of China, until 20 December 2026. The new Queens are Madison Swan (Catherine of Aragon), Izi Maxwell (Anne Boleyn), Laura Dawkes (Jane Seymour), Hannah Victoria (Anna of Cleves), Lizzie Emery (Katherine Howard) and Eloise Lord (Catherine Parr). Lorren Santo-Quinn, Rosie Singha and Erin Summerhayes will be joining the cast as Alternates, with Super Swings Selen Berry and Darcy Stewart. The cast are backed by the show’s all-female band, The Ladies in Waiting, led by Musical Director Yutong Zhang.
SIX follows the six wives of Henry VIII as they take to the mic to tell their own personal tales, remixing five hundred years of historical heartbreak into an 80-minute celebration of 21st century girl power.
On the international stage, SIX continues its reign on Broadway at the Lena Horne Theatre and is now booking into its fifth year. SIX has toured the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Singapore, The Philippines, South Korea, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Switzerland and enjoyed a seven-week season at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas. 2026 sees its return visit to China. Back on home turf, the London production recently celebrated its sixth sensational year in the West End and continues its reign at the Vaudeville Theatre (its third royal residence), whilst nationally, the UK tour – now booking through 2027 – continues to break Box Office records.
Winner of over 35 major international awards including the 2022 Tony Award for ‘Best Original Score’ and ‘Best Costume Design’ on Broadway, triple Whatsonstage Award winner for ‘Best West End Show’ 2022, 2023 and 2025 and the 2020 BBC Radio 2 Audience Award for ‘Best Musical’, SIX was also nominated for five Olivier awards, including ‘Best New Musical’.
