Meet the Cast of SIX: TEEN EDITION
The queens have arrived! We are thrilled to announce the royally talented cast of SIX: TEEN EDITION! Get ready for a history remix like never before as these phenomenal performers take the throne to tell the story of Henry VIII’s six wives in a bold and electrifying new way.
The nine queens bringing “her-story” to the stage are Aliviya Oshner as Catherine of Aragon, Adriana Schmidt as Anne Boleyn, Caleigh Twaddle as Jane Seymour, Morgan Zanger as Anna of Cleves, Anna Hampsmire as Katherine Howard, and Keyarri Holder as Catherine Parr. The Ladies-in-Waiting include Jada Penick, Ruby Griffard, and Marissa Rabe.
SIX: TEEN EDITION is under the direction of Education Director, Brendan Shea.
“This is not your typical musical,” says Shea, “but a dynamic, immersive pop concert that also tells a compelling story. It’s the story of six real women reclaiming their place in history as their own fierce selves, not just wives of the King of England.”
The top-notch production team ready to hold this royal court include Megan Masterman as Vocal Director, Lindsey Stroot as Choreographer, Stage Management by Bailey McNamar, Costume Design by Jayden Dreyer, Scenic Design by Harrison Clarke, Assistant Stage Manager is Cecilia Bruening, and Build Manager is Patrick Regner.
“QCT is honored to be one of the first student theatre programs permitted to bring this blockbuster show to the region, which speaks volumes about the quality of our student performers and volunteers,” said Shea. “And if you think you know SIX, the Teen Edition is an entirely new experience tailor-made for the teenagers in our community—both on stage and in the crowd.”
Performances are Jan 22-26, 2025. Tickets go on sale January 6, 2025. Due to licensing restrictions, audience sizes will be limited to 250 patrons, so grab your tickets early!
Discovery Night for SIX: TEEN EDITION will be held January 14, at 6:00 pm at QCT. The free event will give participants a view into the production process with discussion and Q&A!
