“You’ll laugh until there are tears in your eyes.”—TheaterMania
Oh, Mary! is an uproariously 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).
Now playing at the Lyceum Theatre, this must-see new Broadway comedy has quickly become one of the most popular things to do in NYC for theatre lovers and comedy fans alike.
Described as “THE FUNNIEST PLAY ON BROADWAY” by Entertainment Weekly and “ONE OF THE BEST COMEDIES IN YEARS” by the New York Times, see why this new play on Broadway is rated 90% “EXCELLENT” on Show Score.
