Oh, Mary? More like oh, Michael! 2025 Emmy Award Nominee Michael Urie, Oscar and Emmy Award nominee Kumail Nanjiani, and Jenn Harris will join the cast of Oh, Mary! beginning Aug. 4 through Sept. 28. They will join the company alongside Jinkx Monsoon as Mary Todd Lincoln. Conrad Ricamora, James Scully, and Bianca Leigh, who originated their roles Off-Broadway at the Lucille Lortel and on Broadway at the Lyceum Theatre, along with the current ‘Mary Todd Lincoln,’ Tituss Burgess, will play their final performances on Aug. 2. 

Urie has previously been seen on Broadway in Once Upon a Mattress opposite Sutton Foster, Spamalot, Chicken & Biscuits, Grand Horizons, Torch Song, and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. He will play Mary’s Teacher. Nanjiani and Harris will be making their Broadway debuts as Mary’s Husband and Mary’s Chaperone, respectively. 

Nanjiani is best known for The Big Sick, Marvel’s Eternals, and Obi-Wan Kenobi. He is a standup comic with a new Hulu special set to release this winter. Harris originated the role of Clarice Starling in Silence! The Musical, won a Lortel award for her performance in Modern Orthodox, and was in the revival of All In The Timing.

Written by Tony Award-winner Cole Escola, and directed by Tony Award-winner Sam Pinkleton, Oh, Mary! opened on Broadway on July 11, 2024 at the Lyceum Theatre, where it became the first show in the theater’s 121-year history to gross more than $1 million in a single week. The comedic play about Mary Todd Lincoln has since broken its own box office record twelve times, and became the first show of the 2024-25 Broadway season to recoup its investment. 

Tickets for Oh, Mary! are currently on sale through Jan. 4, 2026. It runs at the Lyceum Theatre on West 45th Street in New York City. For tickets and more information, visit here
