First-look production photos have been released of Jane Krakowski as Mary Todd Lincoln in Cole Escola’s Tony Award-winning comedy Oh, Mary!, playing at the Lyceum Theatre, New York.
Krakowski, a Tony, Olivier, and Critics’ Choice Award winner best known for 30 Rock and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, stars alongside Grammy and Emmy Award nominee Cheyenne Jackson (Mary’s Teacher) and John-Andrew Morrison (Mary’s Husband). The trio have now extended their runs to 4 January 2026, continuing in the show’s principal roles due to exceptional demand.
Directed by Tony Award winner Sam Pinkleton, Oh, Mary! has become one of Broadway’s biggest comedy sensations since opening in July 2024 — the first production in the Lyceum’s 121-year history to gross more than $1 million in a single week. It has since shattered its own box office records and was the first show of the 2024–25 Broadway season to recoup its investment.
The current company also features Jenn Harris, Martin Landry, Hannah Solow, Julian Manjerico, and Sean Peter Forte, with Tony Macht returning to the role of Mary’s Husband’s Assistant from 18 November 2025.

The show 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).
Oh, Mary! heads to London
Following its record-breaking Broadway run, Oh, Mary! will open in London, with Mason Alexander Park (Hedwig and the Angry Inch, The Sandman) set to star in the title role.
