Oh, Mary! is heading to Broadway this summer after a sold-out run at the Lucille Lortel Theatre in downtown New York City.

Cole Escola wrote the play and stars “as 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 one act play that finally examines the forgotten life and dreams of Mrs. Lincoln through the lens of an idiot.”

The show also stars Conrad Ricamora as Mary’s Husband, James Scully as Mary’s Teacher, Bianca Leigh as Mary’s Chaperone, and Tony Macht as Mary’s Husband’s Assistant, with Hannah Solow and Peter Smith completing the cast.

Performances begin on June 26 at the Lyceum Theatre on Broadway with an official opening night set for July 11. The limited 12-week engagement is set to end on September 15.

Margot Robbie is getting into the musical business!

The Oscar-nominated actress’ production company LuckyChap will be producing their first-ever stage musical in New York.

The Big Gay Jamboree is the new musical from Titanique creator Marla Mindelle. She co-wrote the book with Jonathan Parks-Ramage and co-wrote the music and lyrics with Philip Drennen.

The new show, billed as a “comedy trapped inside a musical,” centers on Stacey (Mindelle), who after blacking out from 18 Jägerbombs, wakes up hungover in the most terrifying place of all: an Off-Broadway musical. With no memory of how she got there, Stacey is forced to put her BFA in theater to use, belt her face off, and figure out how the hell she’s gonna escape this 1940′s golden age musical…while a live audience watches.

LuckyChap commented, “We’ve been admiring Marla Mindelle’s work for quite some time and our adoration only grew when we were blown away by Titaníque. We knew that we wanted to be a part of bringing Marla’s The Big Gay Jamboree to the stage. We’ve been wanting to find a way into the theatre space and couldn’t be more thrilled for this to be our first foray alongside the incredible team involved.”

Performances begin on September 14, with an opening night set for October 1, at the Orpheum Theatre in New York City. Tickets are on sale now at BigGayJamboreeTheMusical.com.
