OH, MARY Reviews (2026 New) — Page 14

"Meg Stalter once again donned the bratty, curled wig of Mary Todd Lincoln last night, returning to her Broadway debut performance as the lead in Cole Escola’s Oh, Mary! after a weeklong absence due to bronchitis.

Just prior to the Friday evening performance, Stalter posted an Instagram Story photo of herself, apparently in her dressing room at Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre, with the note, “Planning on being back in the show tonight as long as my voice doesn’t give out.”

All went as planned. Subsequent after-show additions to her Instagram Story included re-posts of audience member IGs with photos and brief video clips of the Hacks actor taking her bows at curtain to a standing ovation..."

Deadline, 7/17/26

Michael Urie on his "Oh, Msry!" dream cast: "Martin Short as Mary and Steve Martin as Mary’s Husband"

This would command Maya Rudolph prices."

I fear they would be insufferable and the show would run for two hours. I've had sufficient of both of them.

I know time will tell, but wondering.. could Alaska be the Broadway Mary? The dates would align with Meg’s departure.

I’m gonna have to travel and see Alaska in this, she’ll be hilarious.

Any rumors of potential Broadway Mary’s?

I’m not going to be in the country during the CT run, otherwise I absolutely would. Would be a lot easier lol

All this squabble is juvenile and a waste of scrolling time to find a persons thoughts about a performance.

I came to BWW to read and learn about theater and not be confronted with childish bitching.

"

It seems like you’re the only one here bitching, dear."

That's not a bitch,DEAR, but a personal comment referring to this thread, DEAR !

Have you NOT read through this thread? Maybe you were one of the above??"

Are you talking about the back and forth about Meg's absence that had not essentially not been talked about in a full 10 days before you told everybody to shut up? Are you okay?

Literally what the **** are you talking about?"

You quite literally derailed the message board like you're asking people to not do... it's actually weird as hell.

Back on convo: Do we think this week we'll be getting an announcement? Are there particular "Press Release Days" that these types of announcements are reserved for? Like are Tuesdays big days to announce? Or is it just really, when the producers decide to announce casting?

I suspect an announcement is very imminent though I would imagine is being timed so as not to step on the tour cast announcement. I've heard from a credible source that it may finally be Bowen Yang's turn to don the bratty curls.

Booster would be a good pick for Mary's Teacher at some point, though.
