Emma Kane
Emma Kane plays Anne Boleyn in Six the Musical. Kane is a junior at North Fort Myers High School, where she is in the theater and choir programs. Some of her favorite previous roles include dance ensemble in All Shook Up at NFMHS, Paulette in Legally Blonde at Melody Lane Performing Arts Center and work in the ensemble in Newsies also at MLPAC.
Kane is especially effervescent as “The Temptress,” whose courtside flirtations to make Henry “jell” backfired when, instead, he had her beheaded. The events leading up to her demise are revealed to the audience in her number, appropriately titled “Don’t Lose UR Head,” which was “queenspired” by Avril Lavigne and Lily Allen (although in an Instagram story, Toby Marlow stated that if “Six” were to be made into a movie, he would like either Billie Eilish or Jessie J to play Anne Boleyn).
Kane certainly does justice to the number and their influences.
