Content creator and performer Dylan Mulvaney has officially made her Broadway debut. On February 16, the 29-year-old took the stage at the Lena Horne Theatre as Anne Boleyn in the hit musical Six, which reimagines the lives of King Henry VIII’s six wives through pop-inspired performances.
A Dream Come True
Mulvaney, who rose to fame with her viral “Days of Girlhood” series documenting her transition, shared her excitement after the curtain closed. Posting to Instagram, she wrote: “Hi Broadway ” and later told fans via Stories: “I had the best night of my entire life and it’s just getting better.”
Her debut was met with cheers from the audience, which included her family and close friends. Actor Joe Locke and Mulvaney’s mother showed support with custom shirts referencing her role as Anne Boleyn.
Sharing the Spotlight
Mulvaney was joined by fellow content creator and composer Abigail Barlow, who also made her Broadway debut as Katherine Howard. Returning cast members included Adrianna Hicks, Anna Uzele, Jasmine Forsberg, and Olivia Donalson.
Preparing for the Role
Mulvaney revived her “Days of Girlhood” series to document rehearsals, beginning January 19. She admitted receiving both supportive and critical messages after the casting announcement. “My first instinct was to convince those people that I do have what it takes to be a Broadway performer,” she said. “But then I realized I shouldn’t waste my breath.”
Her Broadway debut follows her off-Broadway run in The Least Problematic Woman in the World, a one-woman show she wrote and performed in late 2025.
From Viral Fame to Broadway Stage
Mulvaney’s journey to Broadway has been shaped by resilience. After facing backlash from a Bud Light sponsorship in 2023, she returned to theater, writing her own show to reclaim her voice. She previously earned a BFA in musical theatre from the University of Cincinnati’s College-Conservatory of Music and toured nationally in The Book of Mormon. Now, with her debut in Six, Mulvaney has cemented her place on Broadway, proving her talent extends far beyond social media.
