A bold, twisted comedy that reimagines Mary Todd Lincoln as a cabaret-obsessed, self-destructive diva in the days before her husband Abraham Lincoln's assassination.
The original Broadway smash won Tonys for Best Actor (Cole Escola) and Best Direction (Sam Pinkleton), and broke box-office records.
Starring Mason Alexander Park as Mary, with acclaimed direction by Sam Pinkleton, this irreverent revival promises a fresh, haunting edge.
Themes of loss, yearning, addiction, and identity collide in razor-sharp satire, expect campy staging, sharp wit, and theatrical jolts. Book your Oh, Mary! London tickets now!
In the bleak days before April 1865, Mary Todd Lincoln, bereft, ignored, haunted by defeat, is unraveling. Trapped in a marriage with a closeted president, she oscillates between sipping spirits and plotting cabaret stardom as her inner pain and resentment bubble over. Through the lens of absurdity and scathing humor, Oh, Mary! reveals a woman scorned and forgotten, until she claws back her story. What lengths will she go to reclaim her voice?
