Hit Broadway comedy ‘Oh, Mary!’ is coming to Chicago in 2027

“Oh, Mary!” is a dark comedy about an unhinged and miserable Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. It was written by Cole Escola, who starred as Mary when the play first opened on Broadway in summer 2024. Nominated for five Tony Awards, it won best actor for Escola (the first nonbinary winner in the category) and best direction for Sam Pinkleton.
