Oh Mary! on Broadway Ticket
Description
Oh, Mary! is a dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination.

Declared “one of the best comedies in years” by The New York Times, “RuPaul’s Drag Race” winner Jinkx Monsoon* stars as Mary Todd Lincoln through September 28. Joining her are Oscar® and Emmy® Award nominee Kumail Nanjiani* (Marvel’s Eternals, The Big Sick), 2025 Emmy Award nominee Michael Urie (Apple TV’s Shrinking, Once Upon a Mattress), Jenn Harris (American Fiction, Elsbeth), and original cast member Tony Macht.

The worst play I've ever seen. The plot is a gay President Abraham Lincoln who sexually abuses two young men. His deranged alcoholic wife gets her laughs from profuse swearing, which somehow makes some people laugh. Pretty juvenile humour and a disgusting play overall
Irreverent, raunchy, laugh out loud fun. Mary Todd Lincoln as you've never imagined; as no one has imagined! Except for the brilliant Cole Escola. Poor, miserable, "foul and hateful" Mary...what is Abe to do with you? I don't want to say too much because part of the fun was not knowing what to expect. The entire cast is excellent and delivers each line perfectly. People, this show was SO ENTERTAINING. If you just want to laugh, and laugh and laugh......go.
I have been to NYC many times and always see a Broadway show or two, but on this trip, I did little research on what this play was about. I didn’t realize it was a satire of Abraham Lincoln being gay. The audience was laughing throughout the show but we just didn’t get what was so funny. This was my first Broadway show that I was disappointed.
For the theater loving crowd!! I totally get why critics love it, but if you are only attracted by the rotation of starring big names or the buzz surrounding the Tony win or an interest in genuine history, it's a skip for you! So ridiculous, so camp, so queer <3
We're okay with bad language and with gay and a black Abraham Lincoln. But it wasn't funny. It was stupid. Jane krakowski is an excellent actress but she couldn't save a bad script. Don't waste your time and money
