Open auditions held to find the next stars of SIX the musical
One of the biggest hits in the West End - the musical SIX - is holding open auditions to find new performers for the show.
The Tony Award-winning musical - dubbed “the sassiest story in British herstory” - tells the tale of the wives of King Henry VIII as they are reimagined as pop stars.
It made its debut at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe in 2018 and has gone on to be a sell-out success in the West End and on Broadway and tour internationally.
Its producers are holding open auditions in June to find cast members for the 2025/26 West End production.
They are looking for hopefuls, who must be able to sing, dance and act, with “great contemporary pop voices” and “good comedic instincts”.
Auditionees must be aged 18 or over.
Rosie Pearson, of Pearson Casting, said: “We are thrilled to be supporting Kenny Wax, Wendy & Andy Barnes and George Stiles as they re-cast their production of multi-award-winning SIX the Musical through 2025/26 at the Vaudeville Theatre in London’s West End.
“SIX the Musical continues to be dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusivity throughout its casting processes, and this open call welcomes performers of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations, and gender identities to audition for this project.”
The show has also become a huge hit away online with around 1.5 million followers on YouTube and social media such as Instagram, X, TikTok and Facebook.
Songs from the soundtrack have been streamed almost 1 billion times on services such as Spotify.
