Trans actress and TikTok influencer Dylan Mulvaney has been cast in Broadways Six the Musical. The 29-year-old will star as Anne Boleyn, the second wife of King Henry VIII.
However, the announcement sparked a significant backlash, largely from right-wing and gender-critical accounts on X.com, with many people calling the casting decision woke, and others saying that the role of Anne Boleyn should have gone to someone assigned female at birth.
Following the backlash, Six the musicals X (Twitter) account was made private. The account is currently locked to non-followers.
The musicals Instagram account is still public. However, comments have been turned off on the post announcing Mulvaneys casting. This is not the case for the rest of the casting announcements.

(3,481 posts)... shitstains that call anything WOKE, and intend it as a pejorative, more often than not don't even know what the word means. For the few of them that may haunt this site, and can read at a 3rd-grade level, attend:
[To be] aware of, and actively attentive to, important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)
If you have a problem with that, then you are an irredeemably ignorant asshole who shouldn't even be allowed to breed indiscriminately, never mind vote.
