At this rate, I'm beginning to considerwhether this is gearing up to be the final year for SIX on Broadway."

I think when they start stunt casting, it is concerning. But it has had a healthy run if this is the final year"

What a pitty if that's the case. Yet I suppose they could transfer to New Worlds Stages OFF-Broadway.

Khaila Wilcoxon returns as Catherine of Aragon from May 18 - July 19.

If this were to close, I'd say it had a very healthy run, something everyone should be very proud of. Wondering if maybe if those who wanted to see this have seen it by now whether in NYC or at a tour stop near them. Would an off-broadway transfer make sense? Or just continue running those tours through the US.

If I were casting/producers, I'd be reaching out to Whitney Leavitt to see what her plans are post Chicago."

I've seen people suggest New World Stages which isn't a horrible idea if Spelling Bee sticks to it's currently scheduled closing date.

Khaila Wilcoxon takes over on May 18, so I wonder why theyre announcing the understudies through May 8 only?

Has anyone managed to seen Kristin Maldonado as Boleyn? I have listened to her DLUH on YouTube and it was amazing like she was born to sing this part.

Well to be honest Heathers just announced their closing in November ahead of tour staring next year so you could be onto something here.

For a show that was always so crisp with casting---whole new casts, set contracts that didnt renew-- it really feels like the shows now running on casting fumes.... someone surely will be listed in the playbill tomorrow as Catherine Parr, right?

I have two theories.

1. they announce an early closing this week and alts take over for Parr this week

2. they have a big name up their sleeves for Parr

Aiyana Smash has a killer voice, so congrats to her, but this still seems messy...without her as an alternate, they brought in Taylor Pearlstein from the tour, but she and Aiyana only cover one role together (Parr, actually) so unless I am missing something, they now have just one understudy for Aragon and Seymour?

With Khaila Wilcoxon and Kristen Maldonado leaving within the month, I wonder if they have a whole new cast coming in? If they were actually closing, theyd announce and milk the box office bump.

The 19th is also when Khaila Wilcoxon will play her final performance. Maybe they'll either do a full cast change or announce a final cast change and announce a closing

Tickets are currently sold up to mid November... could a January/Feb closing be in its future up to the holidays to close with a bang?

And it's a sunday, if I was a betting man I'd bet on a 2/14/27 closing

Jasmine Forsberg and Abigail Barlow will both depart on August 16.
