The tour still seems to be going great guns several venues sold out months in advance and a few with only limited tickets.
The two one week runs they did at B'ham Hippodrome both totally sold out which is over 30k tickets. I don't know if the hardcore fans are possibly following the tour around rather than keep going to London?

Hannah Lowther (Heathers London, SpongeBob Tour) has been hinting on TikTok that she may have been cast in this, although her fanbase is very much the diehard Heathers/Six/Gen Z crowd so I'm sure she knows exactly what she's doing, whether she has actually been cast in this or not.
Last year when they did the cast change she was very open about having auditioned and having not made the cut so it seems more likely this time round.

A lot of the announcements were quite cold and blunt… Are they glad to be leaving or were they not expecting to be let go? Probably didn’t have a choice they always do this kinda of casting change

I think Monique has got the Madagascar U.K. tour that starts October 20th. She has shared a story of it in her Twitter with eye popping emoji and she has said on IG she wouldn’t be around the last week of Six so it kind of fits!

Has the Six girls picked up a "fangirl" type following which has continued to follow them in other shows like Kerry Ellis did after Wicked for example or is the fanbase just around the show. I could see a lot of Heathers fans being Six fans an vice versa also a fair number of the ladies cast in Heathers would seem good fits in Six.
Does Six cast totally size, race blind or do they have the certain Queens to be played by a certain demographic of girls say Anne of Cleves is always a more curvy girl for example?

All roles have been played by people of all races and sizes. There do seem to be some roles that are cast a certain way more often - but the variety of principals we've seen in London suggests that there is not one set demographic for most of the roles.

Can't believe there's not a poll for this!
We went last night to top off our weekend in London. I wasn't desperate to go again as have been once to the Arts and then fairly recently to the tour but my other half had never been so we booked and so glad we did. I loved the show, perhaps more than ever before.
I thought that it is in great shape in the Vaudeville. The cast were absolutely fantastic and the vocals were faultless. I didn't know until afterwards that we had two understudies on. Leah Vassell was on for Parr - wonderful.
Does anyone know who was on for Howard? I didn't see a cast board. Looking at the programme it was presumably either alternate Howard Danielle Rose or super swing Rachel Rawlinson?
I know some people aren't keen on the concept and it is certainly different to traditional shows but for me the show totally deserves its West End slot, killer vocals and an overall good time!

I wonder who will be cast?! I am expecting some bigger names to perhaps bring back some of the hype SIX has lost? Six has not lost ANY hype! It’s a smash hit that’s opening all over the world! The most successful British new musical in years

The most successful British new musical in years Don't get me wrong... I am a HUGE Six fan! I couldn't agree more that it is the most successful British new musical in years. What I meant was the buzz around the cast, the following they gain etc... I wonder if we will see some 'names' (albeit theatre names) when the entire cast is changed in October.

I don't think anyone goes to this to see 'names', it's already bigger than any names that'd join the cast. The fact it's never been on TKTS on Broadway after running for so long is quite a feat considering most things these days are on there from opening night onwards.

The diehard fans may want former queens to return but for most of the fans of the show the thing they love most is the show itself. I can see fans going to see former cast members in subsequent roles like Kerry Ellis had that post Wicked fangirl posse for years. If this encourages Six fans to try other shows its good and at worse if they don't like the show they still like the performer they are following post Six.

I have a friend who works on the SpongeBob Tour and she now says that Hannah has definitely been cast in Six so take from that what you will.

I think Hannah will be Alt Boleyn/Howard (I think they'll want to use her reputation for being a reliable u/s to cover all 6 Queens), Maddi Firth Howard and Danielle Fiamanya Parr
