Six (Saturday) | West End LIVE 2021

[@poppyameiIa]

six’s west end live performances, among other public appearances, are such a testament to how superbly the show values the work of its alternates & swings. they are absolute superstars, not only do they show immense versatility in all the queens they portray but it takes incredible talent to adapt to different casts like natalie & bryony do here. the same can be said for the in town queens too to be honest, taking it all in stride. i just absolutely live for it!

[@epicdude999]
