1:39 Karis going in for the Boleyn part and then backing away as she sees Chiara as Boleyn

3:23 Oops! Don't forget the selfie phone! :D

Did Phoenix yell "GET THE PHONE!" to Chiara at 3:23? Hard to tell cause she's far away from the screen.

@@samuelking9343 I think she did which is more iconic as historically & in the show, Boleyn & Aragon didn’t get along and so that whole thing was funny 😂😂

[@airachica]

Why is Boleyn not wearing green??? xD

[@TheSoundOfGeorgia]

Because Chiara’s a swing. The way Six works is that each of the swings (essentially understudies) have their own outfit. She’d wear that outfit no matter which role she played. There are some slight differences depending on the character, but I’m not sure exactly how they work; the main thing that changes is their hairstyle.
I imagine it’s because the costumes are pretty involved, and it would be a lot of work for each swing to have six outfits to match whoever they’re playing, so they just have one unique to them.

@@TheSoundOfGeorgia The only place where the swings wear the original costumes is on Broadway because they have certain rules in place

[@samuelking9343]

Alternates have their own costumes to the main Cast.

[@EmareeVA]

@@wickedunofficial AUS has different costumes too. There's been multiple vids I've seen with the green for Boleyn and other sorts of colours (when I went Boleyn was in blue and I've seen someone in black but I think that's a bway costume?).

[@MauritsVeen]

@@EmareeVA Only alternates wear other colors. They are covers for when a principal cast member is out. Principal cast members all wear the same costumes in every production. So principal Boleyn actresses all wear the same green costume.

[@bellakirk-gz9hy]

Why isn’t Parr wherein blue

[@dirty_rascal]

Karis Oka, the performer playing ‘Parr’ is an alternate/swing. The same for Chiara Assetta playing ‘Boleyn’. They have their own costumes.

[@jodiejoynt2737]

And you're not gonna see the alternates/swings costume in broadway or us tour such as aeagon tour and boleyn tour (alternates wear the same costume like the main cast) and South Korea (don't have an alternates)
