Six Musical Announces New Broadway Opening Date - Playbill.com

The announcement arrives the day after New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said that he expects certain productions to open at 100 percent capacity as soon as September 14 (so far, no shows have announced they'll welcome audiences on that date—Six is for now in the earliest reopening slot).

The U.K.-born musical, written by Toby Marlow and director Lucy Moss, began previews February 13, 2020, and was expected to open March 12—the same day Cuomo announced that Broadway would halt performances as coronavirus case numbers grew in the U.S.

While the shutdown was only announced for a few weeks initially, Broadway productions have since remained dark.

And while Cuomo, NYC Mayor Bill De Blasio, the Broadway League, and President Biden’s Chief Medical Officer Anthony Fauci have all cited this fall as a target reopening, many shows are expected to take longer to raise their curtain due to cost, not to mention complicated safety and contractual logistics with large companies.

The Broadway company, at the time of the shutdown, featured Adrianna Hicks as Catherine of Aragon, Andrea Macasaet as Anne Boleyn, Brittney Mack as Anna of Cleves, Abby Mueller as Jane Seymour, Samantha Pauly as Katherine Howard, and Anna Uzele as Catherine Parr; casting for its return will be confirmed later.
