October 25, 2024 by
This from the creators of SIX, Toby Marlow and Lucy Moss’s new fancy musical is loosely based on their own lives. ‘Oliver and Nancy’, not their real names, are played by Jo Foster and Leesa Tulley.

Theatre Review: Top 6 Broadway Shows – Fall 2024
October 2, 2024 by
OH, MARY! www.ohmaryplay.com Oh, Mary! Oh, yes! This show deserves the exclamation along with a chorus of madcap melodies for this cha-cha showgirl. This is drag farce played at top pelt, physical comedy, recurring gags and a twist in the tale of the banal life of the unhinged Mary Todd Lincoln and the looming assassination […]
