Oh, Mary!

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! received Tony Awards for Best Leading Actor in a Play (Cole Escola) and Best Direction of a Play (Sam Pinkleton), Drama League Awards for Outstanding Play and Outstanding Direction of a Play, as well as a special citation from the New York Drama Critics’ Circle. It was named a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.

Funny
Funny show, very camp and quite rude. Not the sort of show i normally book but was recommended. I like music and singing so I loved the cabaret ending! Glad I went and would recommend.

Surprisingly Very Funny
This show was amazingly clever, amusing, funny, well-acted. So good!

Flamboyant, risqué, rude and very very funny
If you're broad minded and are happy with shows that play fast and loose with historical events then this is for you. Fast paced, foul mouthed, anazing performances and absolutely hysterical.
