7 roles
A real badass monarch. Commanding, sure of herself, bold. She lights up the room. (Range: Ab3-Eb5)
Fun-loving, always up for a laugh. Never takes anything too seriously, but at the same time lives for the drama. Some have described her as a “chaos goblin.” (Range: C4-E5)
Kind and sincere. Loves a dad joke, but no one is ever impressed with Jane’s attempts at comedy. (Range: A3-D5)
Savvy, loves her life, won history and no one even knows it. Cleves is here for a good time. (Range: G3-B4)
Super smart with a wicked sense of humor. Remembered as “the promiscuous one” – but she is SO much more than that. (Range: A3-F#5)
Grounded, thoughtful and warm. Loves the other queens. A champion of female empowerment. (Range: A3-E5)
In addition to casting the 6 Ex-Wives, directors will be casting 3-4 swings to serve as understudies for these roles. While we cannot guarantee stage time for the swings, this will be a valuable experience and a chance to learn this fantastic music and choreography.
