REPORT: Broadway casts transgender influencer as lead in musical about historic women

5

From Fox News: Dylan Mulvaney, the transgender influencer at the center of the 2023 Bud Light backlash, has been cast in the Broadway musical about women’s history, “Six.”

Mulvaney will play Anne Boleyn, the second wife of King Henry VIII, marking her Broadway debut. The casting comes more than two years after Mulvaney’s partnership with Bud Light sparked a nationwide boycott and a steep decline in sales for the beer brand.

“Losing our heads to introduce your newest Anne Boleyn! Show some royal love to Queen Dylan Mulvaney, who will be joining the #SIXBroadway 5.0 cast as Anne Boleyn starting February 16!” the musical’s official X account announced Friday.

“Six” retells the stories of King Henry VIII’s six wives through a modern pop lens. Several of the women were executed or divorced, and the show’s website says the wives take the stage to “reclaim their identities out of the shadow of their infamous spouse.”


Libs of TikTok announced, “Dylan Mulvaney is playing one of King Henry VIII wives in a broadway musical. A man is playing a woman in a musical about celebrating women and “girl power”. Can’t make this up.”
