BIO

Hicks began her professional career in Germany with Stage Entertainment. While in Germany, she performed in “Dirty Dancing — The Classic Story on Stage” and Sister Act. She also performed in Legally Blonde in Austria.



In 2015, Hicks made her Broadway debut in The Color Purple as a swing. After acting in Aladdin, Hicks returned to The Color Purple in the national tour, where she played Celie. She returned to the role in 2018 at the Paper Mill Playhouse in a production directed by John Doyle.

In 2019, Hicks joined the North American premiere cast of SIX as Catherine of Aragon. She continued with the cast to the 2020 Broadway previews and eventual 2021 opening following the closing of Broadway due to the COVID-19 pandemic. For their performances, Hicks and her co-stars received the newly created Drama Desk Ensemble Award.

On August 7, 2022, Hicks left SIX to join the cast of the new musical Some Like It Hot as Sugar, the role originally played in the movie by Marilyn Monroe.
