Update: PART 2 IS OUT! Another update (2024): Hey everyone! Before I start saying what I have to say, I just wanted to thank each and every one of you for 1.5M+ views!! :D. Believe me, I am so serious when I say that I had no idea that this video was going to get popular the way it did. And in all honesty, I just made this video for jokes and laughs. I really did not expect to get this much love from all kinds of Theater Kids / Theater Lovers from all over the world. And since you guys were the ones that made my dreams of my channel getting noticed happen, I just wanted to thank you. :) *FAQ:"Where is the slime tutorial?"* *sigh* Oh no.. now time for the bad news. Welp, I have been seeing a lot of comments recently asking where can they find the slime tutorial of this musical, but.. In all honesty, I have no idea where it is. I tried searching it up AND looked through my entire Six the Musical playlist and, well, sorry to inform you guys, but..I think *it might've got deleted.* I really feel sympathy for the ones that really wanted to watch it online, especially if they can't go see the musical in real life due to personal reasons. And if I ever were to come across a different slime tutorial, the first thing I'll do is link it in the description :). Once again, thank you guys for your support, and Happy New Year! *#Justice4Jane* Edit: I showed my neice six the musical for the first time and she said “Honestly, six the musical is the best thing you’ve ever shown to me” 🥹
I love how the six cast really act like they are performing FOR the audience. Looking at them, pointing at them, occasionally kneeling down and speaking directly at them.
not really henry thought Anne was with other men, so she was beheaded henry had and afire with jane while with Anne, but her beheading was not because of jane @@jayreid2513
I think the part that gets soooo overlooked is how many facts are included as throw-away comments. Like Anne's "second song"... Both she and Henry ACTUALLY wore yellow to Catherine's funeral. And I love how they mentioned all of the "historically confirmed" mistresses and miscarriages that Catherine and Anne had to suffer
Actually Anne Boleyn wasn’t allowed to go to Catherine’s wedding, Henry said they both went in yellow. Hence them poking fun at the wearing yellow to a funeral idea
My favorite thing is how all of these stories are HENRY'S version of what went down. Many of which are completely fictionalized. Meaning even with his bullshit 'explanation', they were still absolutely tortured through history.
@@anisahh3426 that one made me almost lose it Especially with the Aussie way (+ the accent) they did it in Melb when I went to see it (the cast was Aussie for the Aussie version). Us Aussies have this way of emphasising some things, no, not the swearing, especially for humour or snark so it was extra funny It's nice seeing the differences between casts. They are all so amazing.
I’ll always prefer this cast. They just give so much energy to every single line. They don’t just rely on the writing to deliver the comedy, they also put it into lines that would normally have no importance
i went to see six yesterday, and when catherine howard did her line about how shes so hot someone screamed out from the crowed “YES YOU ARE” and they all started laughing 😂😂
Katherine Howard will always be my favorite queen. She has the vocals, the attitude, (should’ve actually won if the competition had commenced), and she’s an awesome actress. One of my favorite lines of hers is in “Ex-Wives” when she says “Lock up your husbands, lock up your sons! K. Howard is here and the fun’s begun!” because it always makes me think “Yeah, lock them up so they leave her the fuck alone for once!! Girlie pop can’t catch a damn break!!!”
@@mervyngreene6687 welcome Also I know it goes against the whole point of the show, but objectively the one with the worst life was indeed Katherine Howard
Thanks. Actually, I was very confused about the way this character was written. I had always been under the impression that she was the most innocent of the victims. I thought that she was very young and that she MIGHT have had one indiscretion (true love). The whole "lock up your husbands" thing made her seem like a party girl. Personally, I always felt bad for Anna of Cleve's.
@TheGodOfFestivals it was speculated she was a witch and one sigh of it back then was her having a sixth finger it turned out to be false. It was only put on her for shade after her death.
@@ravenfrost6227 Henry desperately wanted a son to succeed him as king, it's part of the reason he cycled through so many wives who had so many miscarriages. Jane's son did become Edward the Sixth upon Henry's death - at the age of 9 - but he was very sickly and only ruled for 6 years. This lead to Aragon's daughter Mary becoming queen later as Mary the First - aka Bloody Mary. This was only after a bit of dispute over the throne however, where Edward's cousin, who he appointed instead of Mary due to Mary being Catholic, ruled for 9 days. Remeber how Henry founded and became head of the Church of England because the Catholic church wouldn't let him and Aragon get divorced? Yeah, Edward's ministers very much did not want to go back on the Protestant Church of England they had helped build. The reason Mary was called Bloody Mary was in fact because she began persecuting Protestants severely in attempt to bring the country back to Catholicism - she ordered hundreds of Protestants to be burned at the stake. As Mary, like her half brother before her, had no children, Boleyn's daughter Elizabeth became Elizabeth I after her. She reinstated the Church of England and resumed position as head like her father, and began persecuting Catholics. In 1689, several monarchs after Elizabeth, it was indeed made law that no British monarch could be a or be married to a Catholic, and the monarch has been head of the Church of England for many years. No other queens of Henry's bore living children.
Anne and Howard were first cousins. Howard and Anne were also 2nd cousins with Jane Seymour. Parr's mother was Aragon's attendant and she was named after her. It's really all in the family. Even Cleves was considered like a sister to Henry after their annulment.
It's the royalty and nobles lol the option pool is so small so it eventually becomes incestual to some degree 😂 also people talk about the habsburg for their inbreeding but the english was just as bad to the point that other european royal families started to advise against marrying anyone from the english royal family.
Katherine Parr was in love with Thomas Seymour for a long time , she left him to marry the king ( her first rendition of I don’t need your love ) as Henry gave her the choice of marrying him or dying . She did marry Seymour after Henry’s death . She was my favorite of the six , she was kind and smart , she United all of Henry’s children and saw to it they were treated equally and left equal inheritance. She was an author and poet and a huge believer in women’s education . Everyone called her Katie , Katie Parr
in case anyone was wondering: k howard was 19 when she died. she married king henry at 17. all of the assault she describes in the song took place between 13 and 19.
whats more disturbing --- In her song, her first "beau" is sung as " _he was 23 and i was 13..._ ". He wasn't actually 23. That was the *age difference* between them. He was 36. 🤮
My favourite Anne Boleyn quotes: “Yeah, i literally had a daughter and he chopped my head off” “There was this one time, were I had a daughter, and he chopped my head off” J-“What’s hurts more than a broken heart..?” A.B-“A severed head..” J-“I had problems.. My son had to deal with the loss of his mother” A.B- “Oh… Just like how my body had to deal with the loss of its head.” C.of.A-“When King Henry had enough of me.. He didn’t even have the decency to say goodbye..” A.B-“Yah, saaammme! Nice neck by the way” **high five** C.P- **singing** A.B- “Wait, I don’t get it” K-“When ever we get togeth-“ A.B-“EVERYONE NOTICES JANE CANT DANCE” All-“SSSIIIIIIIIIXXXXX” A.B-“Oh my god, I get it”
"Since the only thing we have in common is our husband, grouping us is an inherently comparative act, and thus such inecerssarly elevates our historical approaching... patriarchal structure." **Audience laughs** "Yah"
I love the Jane scene from the 2018 tour better because the line is different J:"If Edward had turned out to be a little baby Edwina... Who knows what could how long true love would have lasted?" B:"...Wow what a really stressful situation that never happened." It really shows that Jane actually was on guard the whole time, not scared per se, but highly aware of what was expected of her and why she has a place in this competition. The other queens actually emphasize her stakes by ironically pretending to downplay them, and it makes her song sound less like an abuse victim trying to rationalize the best parts of her relationship and more like a tongue-in-cheek reading of Henry for his selfishness and how much she didn't matter to him, but her son still meant the world to her.
I read that Anne Boleyn’s “I mean, I guess he really just like my head” and that expression of someone’s giving “head” is actually based on rumor (?) of her being able to stole henry’s heart bcs she’s really good at giving him ‘that’
@@xureez in history, it does say Anne gave Henry something that’s unforgettable in bed. Legend says Anne gave him “ head”. It was Henry’s first time trying hence he framed Anne for witch craft at the very end.
I got into Six because of THIS Broadway performance 🙌🏻💜 Sam is my favourite Katheryn Howard ever. And I love Anna's opera bit in Get Down and the cute Renaissance part they all do in Ex Wives
Funny fact: Henry didn’t break up from the church just to divorce Catherine. He was pissed because he wanted the church to obey the crown but they weren’t having it. Actually denying the divorce was already starting battle with the crown since they did allow many monarch divorces, they just didn’t this time to make the king know they had power. So Henry made him own church where he was the leader and damn that had consequences…
I actually had a lecture which used it as a case study when talking about the Renaissance, Papacy and Reformation. It was more because the papacy was worried about how powerful Catherine of Aragon's family were I think and that they didn't grant a divorce. It just ended up that reform was more convenient to Henry's power, he was still mostly Catholic and I think most of the reform actually happened under Elisabeth instead because Henry really only used it for what was immediately conviennent to him. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong I think this was the summarised version of it.
@@smileyman7821it's a test to see if women in a piece of media talk to each other about something other than a man at least once, which six does not do funnily enough 😭
@@smileyman7821 Generally, the Bechtel Test is a popular critique tool to see if female characters are well depicted in any media. It’s not an exact science but handy for reviewing stuff, so here are the checkboxs: 1. Are there more one female character? 2. Is there a moment where these 2 females talk to each other? This does not include general greetings or nonverbal interactions like fighting. 3. When they speak to each other, they don’t talk about a man or romantic interests in general? There are plenty of great stuff that don’t pass the Bechtel Test, i.e. Six, the musical.😅😂
The Bechdel test is NOT good for reviewing individual movies (or other media), it's better used to measure a bulk of material. It doesn't say anything about the quality of any individual piece of media, it's to measure overall trends in media production. I really wish that people would shut up about it unless they're discussing the bulk of movies released over a period of time, that is pretty much the only time it's useful. Ideally with complementary statistics on how often two male characters talk to each other about something other than a woman, just to highlight the gender difference in how the genders are treated by the creators. (for example, while this show doesn't pass the Bechdel test, it also wouldn't pass a reverse Bechdel test since it doesn't depict any men at all)
Idk why so many ppl don't like this performer for A.B she is such a queen and the way she plays into it and exaggerates things gives that true real old school musical vibe I absolutely adore! She is amazing, besides it ain't her fault that A.B was written this way in the musical! Her only job is doing a damn good play and act of what she was given! And she absolutely slays it!! ❤️❤️
Eh?? I have never seen anyone say they didn’t like Andrea - if anything it’s the dead opposite (except for those who complain none of them have British accents back in the day).
I can't wait to see this show in a few months! The competition about who suffered the most reminds me of an old (and terrible) tv show called "Queen for a Day." It was very popular in the 1950s. Basically, three women told the audience about all the hardships and struggles they had been through. The audience decided which woman had suffered the most and that woman would be crowned "Queen for a Day" and was given fabulous prizes. Nothing was given to the other two woman.
I think SIX is a great way to teach history to teach to kids while giving them a good time. Like Catherine mentions Henry tried to send her to a nunnery first, then he tried taking away the crown completely thats when she fought back , All their songs include facts that kids retain due to the songs.
Honestly, I thought the same thing! I showed this to my friend as we were in history and we were learning of Henry the 8th. If I remember, we aced that part of history.
I love the Mic Drop by Anne towards the end, about the Patriarchal approach of grouping them. For someone who was portrayed as silly to just mic drop like that, was wonderful.
alot of people really say they do prefer UK and etc, honestly I feel both are personal choice (hehe hypocritically I love US cuz Andrea's vocal and riff is top of the chart ... So is sam :3 )
catherine of aragon: beautiful strong voice anne boylene: adorable voice jane seymore:great bealter anne of cleaves: 100% swaggy katherine howard: beautiful high voice catherine parr: very pretty ballad/rb voice
9:11 literally Killed me for a second 😂 the: “Yeah like I had a daughter and he literally chopped my head off” Let’s just appreciate Anne’s sarcasm for a moment -
When it happens at 11:04 I recall that the theater I went to in NYC EXPLODED with gasps and then screams. Anna s song was full of cool stuff and she even enticed a gentlemen on the first row to do a little dance. The theater went CRAZY.
When Anne started singing another solo, that is just why she's my favorite out of all 6 wife's. I also like when she says " oh kinda like how my body had to deal with the loss of its head 🥺" Everything anne says just makes me fall to the floor. There's nothing anne does to make me hate her.
My favorite parts were Anne boleyn's lil thing before her song, and very specifically the joke later in the show when she said "I guess he really liked my head ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"
Excellent timing for this to show up in my recommended considering that my European history class today was about the Protestant Reformation in England and every time the professor mentioned Anne Boleyn my brain started yelling “GREW UP IN THE FRENCH COURT OUI OUI BONJOUR LIFE WAS A CHORE SO” and I could barely focus on taking my damn notes
Always loved the women who played the wives, no matter which version I watch. But I always have a preference for Anne Boleyn. No clue or idea why Boleyn specifically, might be because of the West End performer, but every versions performers are great. Although, this one does seem a bit off somewhat, possibly because this is the Broadway version, and I've only seen the OG UK/West End version.
I love the amount of diversity in Six performances,the first I saw there was mixed race and other races,plus size, and I was so happy that they did that,I love seeing diversity in things that historically wouldn’t be correct,I still love seeing it !!
I love how Jane keeps bringing up dying and not being able to be there for her son yet Catherine Parr also died in childbirth and her daughter disappeared from history and is believed to have died in infancy Edit: I just now remembered this, in one scene she says that her son had to grow up without a mother, Catherine Parr WAS a mother to him, Elizabeth was too young to even remember her mother while Mary didn't get to be there for her mother in her final moments
@CocoaPuff01 the sad part is back then they believe men had no control over their desires so they often blamed the woman, no one knows why Catherine sent Elisabeth away, maybe to protect her maybe because of the incident where she caught them in an embrace, history was ugly
Yasssss!!!! Justice for Jane! Everyone says she’s so boring and the worst queen but I think she’s hilarious!❤ Especially that one part where she yells at Catherine of Aragon then smiles! Perfect!😂
I love how versatile Anne is Christina's Anne is much of a false-waif, almost femme fatale. Smarter than she's letting on, but she's always letting on. Millie is a sort of East End party girl who can command a room without paying them any mind and rises to the top on confidence. Andrea is just a powerhouse who gets what she wants because it's what she wants, and even if you support her she WILL talk down to you. The "X-O, baby" line is maybe the most stark example, but i enjoy a few lines before. Christina plays "not my thing" with such a golden-age slyness, Millie does it like "shut up dont blow my cover," and Andrea doesnt give it the time of day.
I have loved SIX since the first time I listened to it. Didn’t think anything could make me love it more and then I saw it live. Went back for seconds only three weeks later and it still lived up to the expectations in my head. If you have the chance to see this live - DO IT!! It will make you appreciate SIX even more and I guarantee you won’t regret it!
Jane: a lot of people say Henry is stone hearted, but I’m not so sure about that. Anne B: yeah..now that you mention it I remember this one really cute time when I had a daughter and *he chopped my head off* 😊
@@kriseldycastillo285 HELL YEA!!! samantha saw me and my sister giving her heart fingers during the bows and started doing them back! she even called out to us “am i doing it right?? am i doing it right???”

I love the Jane scene from the 2018 tour better because the line is different
J:"If Edward had turned out to be a little baby Edwina... Who knows what could how long true love would have lasted?"
B:"...Wow what a really stressful situation that never happened."
It really shows that Jane actually was on guard the whole time, not scared per se, but highly aware of what was expected of her and why she has a place in this competition. The other queens actually emphasize her stakes by ironically pretending to downplay them, and it makes her song sound less like an abuse victim trying to rationalize the best parts of her relationship and more like a tongue-in-cheek reading of Henry for his selfishness and how much she didn't matter to him, but her son still meant the world to her.
Wasn't Anne beheaded because she did the Alabama mambo with her brother to conceal another miscarriage?
I read that Anne Boleyn’s “I mean, I guess he really just like my head” and that expression of someone’s giving “head” is actually based on rumor (?) of her being able to stole henry’s heart bcs she’s really good at giving him ‘that’
WOWW I never knew that!
@@xureez in history, it does say Anne gave Henry something that’s unforgettable in bed. Legend says Anne gave him “ head”. It was Henry’s first time trying hence he framed Anne for witch craft at the very end.
I got into Six because of THIS Broadway performance 🙌🏻💜 Sam is my favourite Katheryn Howard ever. And I love Anna's opera bit in Get Down and the cute Renaissance part they all do in Ex Wives
Shes a great K Howard
Search up Lisa Tulley Katherine H, I saw her live and she was AMAZING, Natalie Pilkington as Jane was amazing! These two have to be my fav :)
Sam is my favorite K Howard too, the emotion gets me just about every time, especially as a victim of sexual assault.
Never agreed with anything more than this.
Sam is literally AMAZING as k Howard. Just the way she puts emotion into aywd is so good.
Funny fact: Henry didn’t break up from the church just to divorce Catherine. He was pissed because he wanted the church to obey the crown but they weren’t having it. Actually denying the divorce was already starting battle with the crown since they did allow many monarch divorces, they just didn’t this time to make the king know they had power. So Henry made him own church where he was the leader and damn that had consequences…
I also really love how pretty much all of the first new english colonies started because if that (please fact check me)
I'm gonna make my own church! With blackjack and Katherines!
It was a lot of complex of reasons basically
I actually had a lecture which used it as a case study when talking about the Renaissance, Papacy and Reformation. It was more because the papacy was worried about how powerful Catherine of Aragon's family were I think and that they didn't grant a divorce.
It just ended up that reform was more convenient to Henry's power, he was still mostly Catholic and I think most of the reform actually happened under Elisabeth instead because Henry really only used it for what was immediately conviennent to him.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong I think this was the summarised version of it.
My favourite parts of the musical:
Me: shows entire musical
Only song they didn’t show any of was Heart of Stone 😂
Nevermind didn’t finish the vid
Or all you wanna do
I love that A.B and Catherine of Aragon were supposed to be "enemies" but A.B is the one who is vibing with "no way" the most hihihi
I can’t believe I’ve never realize Janes last line of “see more” was a play on her last name
It's also a play on the song Suddenly, Seymour from Little Shop of Horrors ❤
Lol I always thought I was the only one who noticed it 😅 😂
Also "I'm not what I Seem Or (Seymour) am I?"
Really? Glad I wasn't the only one to notice.
Jane is just the queen of dad jokes
i saw six at the straz and Aragon blew me a kiss ever since she’s been my favorite queen
UR SO LUCKYYY 😭😭😭 my cousin and her friend went to see six at the straz too
i saw the tour cast in the uk and aragon waved to me 😭
Not six related but this happened to me at Hamilton with Thomas Jefferson and God the confusion in that moment
I saw it at the straz too!
@@iwakeupandboomimarat Aragon has the best interactions😭✋
My favorite joke: Six has an all-female cast and still doesn’t pass the Bechtel test
What’s the bechtel test
@@smileyman7821it's a test to see if women in a piece of media talk to each other about something other than a man at least once, which six does not do funnily enough 😭
@@smileyman7821 Generally, the Bechtel Test is a popular critique tool to see if female characters are well depicted in any media. It’s not an exact science but handy for reviewing stuff, so here are the checkboxs:
1. Are there more one female character?
2. Is there a moment where these 2 females talk to each other? This does not include general greetings or nonverbal interactions like fighting.
3. When they speak to each other, they don’t talk about a man or romantic interests in general?
There are plenty of great stuff that don’t pass the Bechtel Test, i.e. Six, the musical.😅😂
The Bechdel test is NOT good for reviewing individual movies (or other media), it's better used to measure a bulk of material. It doesn't say anything about the quality of any individual piece of media, it's to measure overall trends in media production.
I really wish that people would shut up about it unless they're discussing the bulk of movies released over a period of time, that is pretty much the only time it's useful. Ideally with complementary statistics on how often two male characters talk to each other about something other than a woman, just to highlight the gender difference in how the genders are treated by the creators.
(for example, while this show doesn't pass the Bechdel test, it also wouldn't pass a reverse Bechdel test since it doesn't depict any men at all)
@@helenanilsson5666this is a joke (referring to the original comment)
The concept of SIX is amazing the writes are genius
All wives are legit just in relatable and hilarious and I love how Anne and Katherine team up and then Katherine just turns it around
Fr!! I loved that part tho
i loved how the beheaded ones have the best insults
Idk why so many ppl don't like this performer for A.B she is such a queen and the way she plays into it and exaggerates things gives that true real old school musical vibe I absolutely adore!
She is amazing, besides it ain't her fault that A.B was written this way in the musical! Her only job is doing a damn good play and act of what she was given! And she absolutely slays it!! ❤️❤️
Who said that? No one ever did. Stop lying
Eh?? I have never seen anyone say they didn’t like Andrea - if anything it’s the dead opposite (except for those who complain none of them have British accents back in the day).
Who's a.b
"yea like I had a daughter and he literally chopped my head off " best quote of the century 😂
I can't wait to see this show in a few months! The competition about who suffered the most reminds me of an old (and terrible) tv show called "Queen for a Day." It was very popular in the 1950s. Basically, three women told the audience about all the hardships and struggles they had been through. The audience decided which woman had suffered the most and that woman would be crowned "Queen for a Day" and was given fabulous prizes. Nothing was given to the other two woman.
Meanwhile, it reminds me of a more recent show... Called The search for the next Elle Woods
I think SIX is a great way to teach history to teach to kids while giving them a good time. Like Catherine mentions Henry tried to send her to a nunnery first, then he tried taking away the crown completely thats when she fought back , All their songs include facts that kids retain due to the songs.
Honestly, I thought the same thing! I showed this to my friend as we were in history and we were learning of Henry the 8th. If I remember, we aced that part of history.
I love the Mic Drop by Anne towards the end, about the Patriarchal approach of grouping them. For someone who was portrayed as silly to just mic drop like that, was wonderful.
"Yah! I read!"
alot of people really say they do prefer UK and etc, honestly I feel both are personal choice (hehe hypocritically I love US cuz Andrea's vocal and riff is top of the chart ... So is sam :3 )
This with Sam AND Andrea bc Their riffs are everything and that way this cast harmonises is amazing
I prefer the US Anne Boleyn over the UK one any day
@@undercover_deer fairs I think a lot of the jokes are British and you can tell the US girls don’t get them so Millie tends to deliver them better
@@undercover_deer same
@@xureez Yeah, same. Nice comment by the way!
Catherine calling Anne “Bo-loser” and Anne saying “GET OVER IT!” always gets me 😭-
catherine of aragon: beautiful strong voice
anne boylene: adorable voice
jane seymore:great bealter
anne of cleaves: 100% swaggy
katherine howard: beautiful high voice
catherine parr: very pretty ballad/rb voice
9:11 literally Killed me for a second 😂 the: “Yeah like I had a daughter and he literally chopped my head off” Let’s just appreciate Anne’s sarcasm for a moment -
What is so impressive is not always the note they hit but the power and expression behind it.
i just love how this jane fr looks like a mother the way she dance and the poses LMAO love her sm
When it happens at 11:04 I recall that the theater I went to in NYC EXPLODED with gasps and then screams. Anna s song was full of cool stuff and she even enticed a gentlemen on the first row to do a little dance. The theater went CRAZY.
Six the musical, the world's first historical kpop group.
Kpop?
"SOMEBODY HOLD ME BACK!"
She was ready to go with Anne
its so funny lmao
When Anne started singing another solo, that is just why she's my favorite out of all 6 wife's. I also like when she says " oh kinda like how my body had to deal with the loss of its head 🥺"
Everything anne says just makes me fall to the floor.
There's nothing anne does to make me hate her.
My favorite parts were Anne boleyn's lil thing before her song, and very specifically the joke later in the show when she said "I guess he really liked my head ¯\_(ツ)_/¯"
"we cant garentee that YOULL STILL WALK AT 40" is the best part of hous of holiban
gonna be honest, the broadway cast really made me love all the characters that i never really take notice of 💜
6:30 aragon mouthing "shes crazy" loooooool
I never noticed that lol
Omg i she that
LOL, thank you for pointing that out
“funny how we all discuss that but never henry’s little PRICK up your ears im Catherine..” is so my fav.
Mhm! Fr like same
Frfrrrr ✨✨
Excellent timing for this to show up in my recommended considering that my European history class today was about the Protestant Reformation in England and every time the professor mentioned Anne Boleyn my brain started yelling “GREW UP IN THE FRENCH COURT OUI OUI BONJOUR LIFE WAS A CHORE SO” and I could barely focus on taking my damn notes
Your favourite bit:
Basically the entire musical.
Anne Boleyn’s second song TOOK ME OUT 😂😂😂😂 The facial expressions were personal!
Anne's voice is so unique and fun to listen to my goodness
I wish I could have saw this with this cast, they're so funny and amazing singers
I thought you said they have amazing fingers💀
@@sofia-fz9onwait, what? 🤣
Jane-What's more broken than a broken heart?
Anne- A SEVERED HEAD.
ME- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
this is definately my favorite casting of SIX - also the way she sings "-us too" is just so amazing, I get chills every time,7:09
9:53 THAT PART IS SO SMOOTH OMG
i saw six today and they ABSOLUTELY DOMINATED the performance, the lights, the riffs i had so much fun
The girl playing Anne is my absolute favorite. I just love how she brought the “character” to life.
Always loved the women who played the wives, no matter which version I watch. But I always have a preference for Anne Boleyn. No clue or idea why Boleyn specifically, might be because of the West End performer, but every versions performers are great. Although, this one does seem a bit off somewhat, possibly because this is the Broadway version, and I've only seen the OG UK/West End version.
This version anne gives me china porcelain doll vibes and think that's why i like her
“GUYS I HAVE THE PLAUGE! Lol just kidding my life’s amazing”
Really helped to convey that 😅
I love the amount of diversity in Six performances,the first I saw there was mixed race and other races,plus size, and I was so happy that they did that,I love seeing diversity in things that historically wouldn’t be correct,I still love seeing it !!
Me too :)
I can't get over the lil gasps at 5:29!
No matter the cast, this musical is just my comfort place tbh
I love how Jane keeps bringing up dying and not being able to be there for her son yet Catherine Parr also died in childbirth and her daughter disappeared from history and is believed to have died in infancy
Edit: I just now remembered this, in one scene she says that her son had to grow up without a mother, Catherine Parr WAS a mother to him, Elizabeth was too young to even remember her mother while Mary didn't get to be there for her mother in her final moments
Catherine was horrible to Elizabeth. Perpetuated SA against her with her husband
@CocoaPuff01 the sad part is back then they believe men had no control over their desires so they often blamed the woman, no one knows why Catherine sent Elisabeth away, maybe to protect her maybe because of the incident where she caught them in an embrace, history was ugly
All I need in my life is Adrianna Hicks saying "Okay"
All I neen in my life is Adrianna Hicks. Period.
i love all the dif versions of six bc every time i see its cast rlly well and each version has dif funny moments and im just obsessed
1:27 I love the way they did beheaded ITS SO SMOOTH
SAMEE
Yasssss!!!! Justice for Jane! Everyone says she’s so boring and the worst queen but I think she’s hilarious!❤ Especially that one part where she yells at Catherine of Aragon then smiles! Perfect!😂
Both Anne's had some of the best lines in this show
They were literally the perfect cast no one can’t tell me otherwise…
5:58 had my laugh crying " I wanna dance and sing!" "Politics" "nOt My ThInG"
How I imagine it
"I wanna dance and sing"
"Politics" as in Politics arrive
"NoT mY tHiNg👁👄👁"
The Anne Boleyn character is hilariously sassy
9:13, 9:25, and 9:40 were my favourites
12:12 was fun too
I adore Catherine Aragon's facial expression in this version.
Wearing yellow to a funeral will always be iconic
I absolutely LOVE Anne Boleyn’s part. It gave ‘I’m the best and we all know it’ vibes
I love how versatile Anne is
Christina's Anne is much of a false-waif, almost femme fatale. Smarter than she's letting on, but she's always letting on. Millie is a sort of East End party girl who can command a room without paying them any mind and rises to the top on confidence. Andrea is just a powerhouse who gets what she wants because it's what she wants, and even if you support her she WILL talk down to you.
The "X-O, baby" line is maybe the most stark example, but i enjoy a few lines before. Christina plays "not my thing" with such a golden-age slyness, Millie does it like "shut up dont blow my cover," and Andrea doesnt give it the time of day.
Good analysis
I have loved SIX since the first time I listened to it. Didn’t think anything could make me love it more and then I saw it live. Went back for seconds only three weeks later and it still lived up to the expectations in my head. If you have the chance to see this live - DO IT!! It will make you appreciate SIX even more and I guarantee you won’t regret it!
six the musical has always slayed
having that entire section of ex wives is so iconic lmao
9:41 Jane: What it's hurt more than a broken heart?
Anne: *a severed head*
Me: KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
THE FIRST CLIP IS SO HOT also the experience of the show is so much better in person
Jane: a lot of people say Henry is stone hearted, but I’m not so sure about that.
Anne B: yeah..now that you mention it I remember this one really cute time when I had a daughter and *he chopped my head off* 😊
bro this performance and the actors are my favourites i love it smm and its the reason i love six
#Justice4Jane
Katherine Howard is my fave queen and they way she sings with such emotion and genuinely sings like she went thru it
10:33 she looks so offended lol I love the faces they make
SAMEE
11:49 "so now there's one horse out of the race" the LORE in the offhanded comments. Anne of cleves was literally dubbed "the Flanders Mare" by Henry
Yeah it's such a funny throwaway comment, especially if you understand it
This Anne B is adorable!! I love her.
I would've added the ending of All You Wanna Do because her acting is SO good
OH YEAAA THAT PART WAS AMAZING
SHE ABSOLUTELY NAILED IT
MY FAVORITE PART (other than the wearing yellow to a funeral) but also makes me cry
"Little MARY had the CHICKEN POX" that makes me crack up everytime lmao
gonna go see it tomorrow night with andrea, brittany, and samantha! i haven’t seen it live before but i’m so excited!
LUCKYYY i’m seeing it next year for my birthday which is in April 🥲
@@xureez oh my birthday is in april too!
WAS IT GOOD
@@kriseldycastillo285 HELL YEA!!! samantha saw me and my sister giving her heart fingers during the bows and started doing them back! she even called out to us “am i doing it right?? am i doing it right???”
I’ve seen it before, (not with the original cast,) but it was fantastic. haus of holbein is pretty overlooked it was amazing in person
I dunno if it’s just me but I LOVE the choreography in the musical. All of the dances are so good and the crips movements and posing always gets me
Same!
Omg just realized Anna's right earring is "IV" - it's these costuming designs that just add to the show wonderfully
absolutely love this cast. amazing vocals, humour, aaaa!! just aaaaaa!
the howards roast is just the best part of the show that is just AMAYZING
I’m over here wondering who
Anne B isn’t strangling Catherine of Aragon for talking smack but then in the next song, Anne B roasts Catherine 😂
15:04 ....that guy said "Oh FUCK you" ....something tells me he took that personal lmao
Yyyyyep 😂
THIS IS THE BEST CAST EVER i especially love anne boleyn's casting -- her mannerisms & comedic timing is IMPECCABLE
Real. Andrea is an icon ❤ that’s why she’s one of my favorite broadway actors
