If you just search "Megasix Boleyn" you can find a bunch, because if a video has an alternate, they tend to put who she's on for in the title. Same trick works for any role. :)
bruh Grace really pulled an Andrea Macasaet and forgot to say ”LOL” (yes im aware that this was recorded before the Chicago cast it's just hilarious lmao)
grace boleyn?? finallY i've been looking for this i saw this show it was so good i've got a near grace bingo, missing her as howard live UPDATE: I SAW HER AS HOWARD, BINGOOOOOO
Kimb0 Millie O’Connell is the queen who plays only Anne boleyn and grace is a swing/alternate so she plays Boleyn, Howard and Seymour I don’t know if she plays other queens as well but they are the only ones I’ve seen
Layla Grace Courtney posted about this on her story, but basically all of the alternates cover all of the roles, but they have roles they cover more often than others. She made a list of the priority of each role to a corresponding alternate, but I don’t remember what they were exactly. To sum it up, there are three levels of importance (two roles per level). The role with highest importance is the role that the specific alternate best-fits and plays the most often, while the role with the lowest level of priority for each alternate is only reserved for last-minute emergencies. That probably made no sense as it’s the summer and my brain is mush, but I hope you somewhat understand what I’m saying lol
Layla Grace hecking late but, that’s kinda hypocritical. that’s me saying ‘ this megasix doesn’t have courtney in it i don’t like it ‘ if you like six ( or ANY other musical ) you have to at least respect whoever’s on for the role, wether you like the person who’s on or not.
Is it weird that I like Grace better as Boleyn like she can warm into the role I like her voice and accent better , never got the cockny accent for Boleyn as she was a posh gal from France but whatever 🤷♀️
That line has less to do with her actual costume (which we know because Christina Modestou’s costume wasn’t green either and the line was still in there) and more a reference to the idea that Greensleeves was written by Henry VIII for Anne Boleyn.
okay but i just realized alexia looks like my algebra teacher in the seventh grade and its freaking me out a bit because shes basically just a younger, nicer, sexier version of the mrs mitchell i knew.
Spill the tea Wot dis mim min? Each one of the understudies/swings have their own unique costume instead of wearing a copy of the original queen’s costume
@@askingalexandria9662 Yep, the only thing that seems to carry over are the different hair pieces, as Courtney has Aragon's crown headband, and Grace has Boleyn's spiked hair ties.
jeffrey44 yeah! Ex wives does. But Grace( whos playing Boleyn) doesn’t have red lips either so the lyric for a swing is probably meant to be only a history reference instead of also a costume reference, and the 3 swings each play almost all of the six queens, so it would be a lot to have 18 of those super intricate costumes made which is probably also she isn’t wearing her own green Boleyn costume:)
They just sing it as is... principal Boleyn is the only one with ‘green sleeves’ so in Ex Wives and SIX they just reference it instead of pointing them out specifically :)
They still say it! It's an iconic part of the character and the songs and dialogue wouldn't work if they didn't. I think maybe the alternates sometimes wear the green cuff things that Millie wears but I dont know for sure
@@chicanina1633 "Maggie" (the guitarist) is supposed to be Lady Margaret Lee, who served Anne Boleyn. Her real name is Amy Shaw “Bessie” (the bassist) is supposed to be Elizabeth "Bessie" Blount, who served Anne of Cleves. Her real name is Terri De Marco “Joan” (the keyboard-ist (what?) and MD) is supposed to be Jane “Joan” Meutas, who served Jane Seymour. Her real name is Katy Richardson. “Señorita Maria” (the drummer) is supposed to be María de Salinas, who served Catherine of Aragon. Her real name is Alice Angliss. hope this helped! ❤️
They're not supposed to be the famous pop stars, they're supposed to be the six wives of Henry VIII, but each one is based off of one (or two) famous female pop stars. Aragon is Beyoncé, Boleyn is Lily Allen, Seymour is Adele and Sia, Cleves is Nicki Minaj and Rihanna, Howard is Ariana Grande and Brittney Spears and Parr is Alicia Keys.
In a way. Basically the shows whole concept is "What if Henry VIII's wives were all like pop idols". Plot is basically they get together and they have a competition where they sing and compare about who had the worst time being married to him and who ever wins gets to be leader of their group. Although in the end they're basically like fuck Henry we don't need him all we need is each other.
Probably the line as it’s written, since that line is not so much a reference to her costume as to the myth that Henry VIII wrote Greensleeves as a love letter to Anne Boleyn.
Clare Ann-I love Millie so much that I’d never said that before, but you’re totally right. Her vocals are the weakest, but she just embodies the character so well. I’m very conflicted about her lol
Clare Ann no offence to Millie ( i love her so much by the way) but i think Vicki might be a better Boleyn, cause when i saw Vicki she had better vocals than Millie in my opinion and she’s really good at playing the part of Boleyn
I feel like Millie’s skirt was one of the most iconic parts of the musical. I hate it that they took it out but I also appreciate they make a unique outfit for each actress (excuse me they are queens)
She wasn’t wearing green because 18 more costumes for all the swings would be extremely expensive, which is why they all have their own outfit, and they only do their hair differently and use different accessories depending on which queen they play
