Filming live theater is usually a form of sacrilege. A musical about the wives of Henry VIII turned it into grassroots marketing for a new generation of fans.
The queens are rightfully reclaiming their place both on the throne and in history. Until June 10, the ex-wives of Henry VIII will be ruling the Hollywood Pantages Theatre.
In the musical 'Six' now playing at the Hollywood Pantages and later in Costa Mesa six Tudor queens tell their stories in a reality-esque, pop concert competition.
The cast of the tour includes Khaila Wilcoxon as Catherine of Aragon, Storm Lever as Anne Boleyn, Jasmine Forsberg as Jane Seymour, Olivia Donalson as Anna of Cleves, Didi Romero as Katherine Howard, and Gabriela Carrillo as Catherine Parr.
