Broadway’s always buzzing about Adrianna Hicks!! And we’re grateful to have her on the podcast amidst press events and a busy 8 show week. Adrianna now stars as Sugar Cane in the Original Broadway Cast of SOME LIKE IT HOT, the most Tony Nominated show of the season! Produced by Mariah Carey. She’s also best known for originating Catherine of Aragon in SIX THE MUSICAL on Broadway. What can’t she do?! Other Broadway credits include ALADDIN as the Fortune Teller and her debut in THE COLOR PURPLE with Jennifer Hudson and Cynthia Erivo.

Adrianna is a Texas native with a B.F.A degree in Musical Theatre from The University of Oklahoma Weitzenhoffer School of Musical Theatre. Out of college, instead of heading to straight to New York City, she traveled overseas to perform in the German production of DIRTY DANCING THE MUSICAL in Oberhausen, Germany. Adrianna then headed to Vienna, Austria to partake in the original German production of LEGALLY BLONDE, and in her final year overseas, she starred in SISTER ACT THE MUSICAL.

Adrianna played Celie on the 1st National Tour of THE COLOR PURPLE revival, and later played the role at Papermill Playhouse under the direction of John Doyle. She’s also starred in the role of Dorothy in THE WIZ at Sacramento Music Circus.
