A must-see!!
"Oh Mary! was absolutely hysterical! From the moment it started, I couldn't stop laughing. It was funny, wildly inappropriate, and over the top in the best possible way. The cast has perfect comedic timing, the writing was sharp, daring, and just plain outrageous. It is ne of those shows where you're still quoting lines and laughing about scenes long after you've left the theater. If you are looking for a night out that's bold, hilarious, and completely unforgettable, Oh Mary! is a must see. "

Oh Mary is a Smash Hit!
"I had heard so many great things about this show but I didn’t really know what I was in for. The opening scene alone set the tone and I was cracking up from start to finish! It’s HILARIOUS! I saw Jinx Monsoon as Mary Todd and was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by her character. So stupid good! I can’t recommend seeing this more!! Go now!! One of the best I’ve ever seen! Cole Escola is a comedic genius!"

A riot
"Laugh-a-minute fun from Cole Escola's expert writing...Grande Dame Jinkx Monsoon never disappoints - everyone has been interpreting Mary differently, from Cole themselves to Titus Burgess and shortly, Jane Krakowski, but it feels like this role was made for Jinkx. "

Not sure what I saw, but I liked it.
"A bit camp, but not camp, sexy, but not sexy, over the top, but pulls back, and a tour de force for Mary."

Loved it, jinx is a legend
"I had my doubts after reading some less-than-positive reviews, but I left the theatre pleasantly surprised. Jinx and the rest of the cast were outstanding, delivering a visceral performance that stayed true to the genre while sparking plenty of laughter.

About 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.
