Oh, Mary! (Broadway)
Choose options
Cole Escola’s blisteringly funny, irreverent dark comedy masterpiece 'Oh, Mary!' completely transfigured the contemporary stage landscape, transferring triumphantly to the Lyceum Theatre in 2024 after an explosive, record-shattering Off-Broadway run at the Lucille Lortel Theatre. Conceived as an anarchic, historically inaccurate biographical farce that completely shatters traditional documentary templates, the breathless real-time narrative unfolds inside the White House on the immediate eve of the Civil War’s conclusion, tracking Mary Todd Lincoln as a volatile, liquor-fueled former cabaret star who pathologically scams her husband to return to show business. Directed by Sam Pinkleton, it starred Escola.
