Description

Oh, Mary! is a dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Unrequited yearning, alcoholism, and suppressed desires abound in this 80-minute one-act play that finally examines the forgotten life and dreams of Mrs. Lincoln through the lens of an idiot (playwright Cole Escola).

Declared "one of the best comedies in years" by The New York Times, Oh, Mary! has been heralded as the funniest play on Broadway by the New York Post, Entertainment Weekly, Variety, Time Out New York, and The Guardian. "It’s a bona fide phenomenon," raves The Wall Street Journal, and Variety calls it "unquestionably the funniest, gayest, campiest play Broadway has seen in years."

Oh, Mary! is now extended through June 29, 2025. Cole Escola dons the bratty curls, and Emmy nominee Betty Gilpin (GLOW, Mrs. Davis) stars as Mary Todd Lincoln beginning January 21 through March 16.

This show is recommended for ages 14 and up due to adult language and situations. Children under the age of 4 are not permitted in the theatre.
