Have the Boleyn tabs been changed to loops with green inside for all costumes?

Yes! That started with the Boleyn redesign for Broadway in 2020 (what I call the 3.0 costume). It's been used for practically all new Boleyn costumes ever since:

Above examples are Andrea Macasaet (2020 Broadway), Naomi Alade (2023-25 West End), 배수정 (Pae Su-jeong, 2023 South Korea), and Analise Rios (Breakaway 6.0).

All current costumes have the looped tabs and green lining. However, in some prior costumes there’s been a few exceptions:

L’Oréal Roaché and Ashlee Waldbauer (Bliss 3.0) both had the 3.0 looped tabs but it didn’t appear to have the green backing.

Kala Gare (2021-23 Australian Tour) has been in an earlier production and re-used her 2.0-style costume, which had the 2.0 flat tabs rather than the 3.0 looped tabs. They added some studs to her flat tabs to mimic the 3.0 design changes, but didn’t actually replace them with looped.

Also, thank you for including the photo credit in your ask. Always appreciated.

Six the Musical Production Guide

Hey! I’m bored and there’s a lot going on with Six productions, so here’s a little guide with the different productions and what’s going on at the moment. Also be sure to check the Wiki as it has a ton of more info.

Current Productions:

West End: Running as normal! The current cast has been there since October 2022 and a cast change should occur in September/October/November!

Broadway: Running as normal! The current cast has been there since December 2022 and a cast change should occur in December!

UK Tour: Running as normal! The current cast will leave on April 23rd and the new cast will start April 25th (this coming week). Harriet Caplan-Dean (swing) will be staying with the new cast for a few weeks as they settle in. The new cast will also be performing in The Netherlands in September, like the current cast performed in South Korea. However there will not be a Netherlands production, it’s just a tour stop by the UK Tour cast!

North American “Aragon” Tour: Closing on July 30th in Portland! It’s very likely that the set and stuff will be used for the Canadian Production (see below), but will probably reopen in 2024. Jasmine Forsberg (Seymour) will be leaving on April 29th & Didi Romero (Howard) will be leaving on May 7th. Natalie Paris (Seymour) [OG WE Seymour] & Courtney Mack (Howard) [OG BW Alternate] will be their replacements!

North American “Boleyn” Tour: Running as normal! The current cast will leave on October 22nd & the new cast will start October 31st!

South Korea: Closing on June 25th! Heo Sol-ji (Howard) wasn’t able to debut with the other cast members in March due to an injury, but she might debut around April 29th (no confirmed date yet to my knowledge)!

NCL Bliss: Closing in May! No official date yet but we should be getting a new cast announcement soon where they’ll confirm the dates.

NCL Breakaway: New cast started in March and will be there until August 13th!

Upcoming Productions:

Canada: Opening on August 12th in Edmonton and moving to Toronto from September - November with a possible extension! As of *right now* it is just a sit-down production that’s playing in 2 cities, not an official tour. The Six accounts haven’t really addressed it (I think the @sixustour account on Instagram reposted a story about it) but it will be an all-Canadian cast, so not the Aragon or Boleyn tours. It’s possible that it could turn into a Canadian tour, maybe even referred to as the Seymour Tour, but as of right now it is just a sit-down production in Canada.

I know I come and go from Tumblr a lot, but I love doing these kinds of informational posts so let me know if you want more/have questions!

Six Korean Cast Appreciation 💜

SOLJI Howard Debut today!!!!

[six-costume-refs]

Do we know what set is being used for the German production - is it the AU/NZ set or the current UK tour one? If it is the latter, is it going to stay in Germany and the updated set used in Seoul maybe brought to the UK?

The German production is the UK Tour set. All of the UK Tour assets traveled with them. The UKT set is also specifically rigged for touring, with easier assembly for load in and strike.

The UK Tour should continue touring with their current set. Again, it’s rigged for touring. Additionally, the dimensions of different sets substantially differ, and the South Korean set was particularly large and may not fit on all UK touring stages (some of which are on the smaller side). And between both the rigging and sizing, changing sets mid-run poses some additional logistical challenges for both the tech team and the actors - changed spacing, changed load-in/strike logistics, the whole shebang. It’s not an impossible switch by any means, but it is such a complex one as to be unlikely.

I’ve been expecting that they’ll keep the Korean set available for any other international productions, or possibly for the Australasian Tour.

which six wigs from current productions are most different from each other for each role?

This depends on so many things. The wigs have to follow a certain style for each character and how different they can be from each other varies a lot between characters. Lenght, volume, styling, cut, color, hairtype, how much standarization there is. All affect the final look

I think it is:

Aragon: Aragon tour. This one is weird because both UK companies have very different styles for the principal and alternate, but all other alts and swings have almost identical styles. Broadway and Boleyn tour change lenght, volume and hairtype but styling is overall the same. Aragon tour has simmilar curl type for Kahlia, Kelly and Kelsee but a very distinct styling for each one plus marilyn who does have a simmilar styling to Kelsee but completely different hair type.

Boleyn: Broadway. Leandra makes them win this one on her own, but also Ayla has a different cut than Aubrey and Marilyn (and obviously a different hair type too).

Seymour: Aragon tour. For ANAT all three of them have different lenght, style and curls; both before and after Kelly and Kelsee got new wigs (and thats not even counting kelsee's ginger wig). I feel like WE and UKT should be in here too because both have very distinct styles for principal and alt and have at least one other alternate that should have a customized style (that hasn't debuted yet), but everyone else has the same just like for Aragon.

Cleves: Everyone (minus SK but I added them to the chart anyway). Cleves is the character that gets the most customization by far, and even when the base style is technically the same all read very different onstage. Even when NCS tries to give the alts a style that looks the same as the principal it ends up looking different.

Howard: broadway and only because of a technicality. Holli's wig is made to look like curly hair straightened while everyone else is just straight hair. Also I am not counting dye color in here because that is chosen to compliment the base haircolor so it is not an intentional difference. (And zoomed out photos because they all have different lenghts too)

Parr: All land companies. Parr does have four different base styles: side curly ponytail, side curls, regular ponytail and updo. But within those happens the same that happens with Cleves, even when the base is the same it looks different on everyone. WE has Roxanne in the ponytail, Leah in side curls, Monique in side curly ponytail and everyone else in different updos. UKT has a simmilar mix of side ponytail for Alana, side curls for Natalie and different updos for everyone else. Boleyn tour has two different side ponytails and two different regular ponytails. Aragon tour has Gabi's style and three different ponytails. Broadway has Taylors side swept curls, two very distinct side curly ponytails and one regular ponytail.

And here's the second cast! Obligatory reminder that there were no set casts, this was simply the second combination of actresses I saw to ensure I saw each actress perform at least once... Featuring:

Aragon - Son Seung-yeon (손승연) Boleyn - Kim Ji-woo (김지우) Seymour - Park Hyena (박혜나) Cleves - Kim Ji-sun (김지선) Howard - Kim Ryeo-won (김려원) Parr - Hong Ji-hee (홍지희)

(note once again the picture is not accurate, it features lee arum-soul and yoo ju-hye instead of son seung-yeon and hong ji-hee)
