I’ve seen it twice, at the Edinburgh Fringe and when it was in Glasgow over Christmas.
Edinburgh: Jaye’J, Millie, Grace, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya Glasgow: Grace,, Millie, Natalie, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya
I definitely preferred Grace as Aragon. She seemed to be more vocally confident in the role than as Seymour (evidently she swapped with Courtney).
Natalie and Maiya are my favourites. Their voices stick out as being the best and most memorable.

Wow! Since you've seen it with so many combinations, which group of six was your favourite? Of the one's I've seen probably Jaye'J, Vicki, Natalie, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya, but my perfect set would be Grace, Vicki, Courtney, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya or Grace, Millie, Courtney, Vicki, Aimie, Maiya.

1st show: Main Six Queens 2nd show: Jaye’J, Millie, Courtney, Alexia, Grace, Vicki
Courtney is a stunning Seymour, she captures the composure and quiet heartbreak so well. Her Heart Of Stone is beautifully stripped back and reflective.

People work hard and can spend their money on what they want.
I've loved lots of shows over the years but if I was watching the same show twice a week every single week I would have soon sickened myself beyond belief of that show and everyone associated with it.

I've seen it 3 times so far:
1. Courtney, Millie, Natalie, Alexia, Grace, Maiya 2. Jaye'J, Millie, Natalie, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya 3. Courtney, Millie, Natalie, Alexia, Aimie, Maiya
For me, the best combination was the third show - Courtney had grown into the role and was vocally better than the first time I saw her as Aragon - I did like Jaye'J as well.
My favourite queen is Alexia - her facial expressions and her line delivery are excellent every time.

Seeing it this weekend, slightly concerned as I think Millie was the performer on the One Show? And she was weak imho. Might snatch the mic off her and do it myself

The One Show gave no context to that song whatsoever. I agree- both times I've seen the show Millie was my favourite to watch.

Not sure who's on the cast album (Christina Modestou, maybe), but whoever she is, is so much stronger with her breathing and, um, staying in tune. Hoping Millie doesn't disappoint me!

I found Millie to be really cringe on the One Show performance too but I’ll reserve full judgement until I see her live (if she’s on). Sidenote, Christina Modestou is a brilliant performer!

Christina is fabulous, I saw her as Maureen in the Rent tour and she was brilliant! I also saw her perform and acoustic version of Black Magic at Musical Marathon and she was fabulous.

I'm ever so nervous they may be slowly heading toward a Broadway run when the show really is more suited to a small Off-Broadway house. And there's no reason to think that if heads to New York, it won't take an off-Broadway venue instead of a Broadway house. Both the Chicago Shakespeare and ART are modular venues, and so the size of the auditorium can be reconfigured. I don't know if this will be the same Chicago cast transferring to Cambridge. As much as I love Six, I'm actually more intrigued by Dave Malloy's/Rachel Chavkin's Moby Dick and Diane Paulus' 1776 and will definitely be making the trek to Boston to see Moby Dick!

As much as I love Six, I'm actually more intrigued by Dave Malloy's/Rachel Chavkin's Moby Dick and Diane Paulus' 1776 and will definitely be making the trek to Boston to see Moby Dick! Lucky sod! Will be super interested to hear about Moby Dick

Might snatch the mic off her and do it myself I'm in agreeance with what other people have said: Millie is much better live than she was on The One Show. Her comedic timing is good and her facial expressions (along with Alexia's) are hilarious! "Don't Lose Ur Head" is way better in context too.

Went back for the 2nd time tonight. Had Vicki on as Boleyn and loved her. Grace as Parr, as she was the last time, but destined to see Aimee it seems. I really think All You Wanna Do is the weakest song and it seems to go on a bit and also Grace was my least fave girl so that wasn't a great part of the show for me. It goes a little flat there for me. Maybe Aimee does it different so id be interested to see her.
The lighting for this show is great. Should have won an Olivier imo.
