Cole Escola's 'Oh, Mary' Has Finally Made Mary Todd Lincoln a Star

'I am fascinated by people famous by association and what that does to a person.' It's rare for a piece of theater to become such a cult hit that it moves from downtown to Broadway, but that's exactly what's happening with Cole Escola's Oh, Mary! For Escola, who previously was best known for their YouTube sketches and collaborations with Amy Sedaris, 'it feels like I scored a goal for the home team.

I knew she would go on shopping sprees and was criticized for that, because they were at war. And during rehearsal, the director showed me this telegram that was from some museum exhibit. It was a telegram from someone to Abraham Lincoln saying, 'Please come collect your wife, she's making a fool of herself at this party.' It's about someone who everyone thinks is annoying. And I feel that everyone thinks I'm annoying.
