Jane Krakowski in Oh, Mary!

7 December 2026 – 16 January 2027 Trafalgar Theatre · Trafalgar Square

Jane Krakowski, Jenna Maroney in 30 Rock, reprises her Broadway Mary Todd Lincoln for six weeks in Cole Escola’s Olivier-winning comedy.

Jane Krakowski of 30 Rock plays Mary Todd Lincoln in Oh, Mary! at the Trafalgar Theatre by Trafalgar Square from Monday 7 December 2026 to Saturday 16 January 2027.

Cole Escola wrote the play and first played Mary off-Broadway at the Lucille Lortel Theatre in January 2024. It transferred to Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre that July.

The one-act comedy runs 80 minutes and follows a miserable, suffocated Mary in the weeks before her husband’s assassination. Escola won the Tony Award for Best Leading Actor in a Play, and the play was a Pulitzer Prize finalist.

The West End production opened at the same theatre on 3 December 2025. It won the 2026 Olivier Award for Best Entertainment or Comedy Play.

Krakowski played Mary on Broadway, where her run was extended by four weeks. She won a Tony Award for Nine and an Olivier Award for Guys and Dolls in the West End.

In 2025 she was nominated for an Olivier Award for Here We Are at the National Theatre.
