Overview
- Following a coordinated wave of hostile comments after the January 16 cast reveal, the production made its @sixbroadway X account private and disabled comments on the Instagram post announcing Dylan Mulvaney.
- Producers said some responses crossed into bullying and stressed that the protection, safety, and support of the cast remain their highest priority.
- Mulvaney marked her first rehearsal with a video calling performing Anne Boleyn on Broadway a “miracle” while acknowledging her privilege and urging queer and trans youth to keep pursuing their goals.
- The new company begins performances February 16 at the Lena Horne Theatre, with Abigail Barlow joining as Katherine Howard and Adrianna Hicks, Anna Uzele, and Olivia Donalson returning to the cast.
- Casting for Jane Seymour is still to be announced as online debate continues over representation versus historical fidelity in the show’s pop-concert reimagining.
