Oh, Mary!

Oh, Mary! is a new play by Cole Escola, who also stars in this production. It's a dark comedy that reimagines Mary Todd Lincoln's life, focusing on her hidden ambitions and struggles within a restrictive historical context. Escola's distinct comedic voice, often seen in his sketch work, suggests a sharp, character-driven performance. This limited engagement at the Lyceum Theatre in New York offers a chance to see a fresh take on historical drama with a comedic edge. It's likely to appeal to those who appreciate experimental theater, character studies, and a bit of subversive humor in their stage productions.
