Oh, Mary!’s West End opening night – VIPs pose the questions to Mason Alexander Park

Tony Award winner Cole Escola’s smash hit Broadway comedy Oh, Mary! is now officially open in London’s West End!

Last night, WhatsOnStage was on hand to celebrate with an eager bunch of celebrities, who all posed their questions for the star of the show and current WhatsOnStage Award nominee Mason Alexander Park.

Park leads the cast as Mary Todd Lincoln in Escola’s riotous crowd-pleaser, hailed as “80 minutes of perfectly judged silliness” by WhatsOnStage’s Sarah Crompton in her glowing review.

Check out all the opening night chaos in the video below:

The West End premiere cast also features Dino Fetscher as Mary’s Teacher, Kate O’Donnell as Mary’s Chaperone, Oliver Stockley as Mary’s Husband’s Assistant, and Giles Terera as Mary’s Husband.

Directed by Tony Award winner Sam Pinkleton, Oh, Mary! first opened to great acclaim on Broadway in 2024.

A historically dubious wartime comedy, the piece revolves around bored alcoholic housewife Mary Todd Lincoln, who pines for the cabaret stage but is constantly undermined by her closeted, homosexual husband, who also just happens to be the President of the United States.

The creative team includes scenic designer dots, costume designer Holly Pierson, lighting designer Cha See, sound designer and composer Daniel Kluger, sound designer Drew Levy, wig designer Leah J Loukas, props supervisor Addison Heeren, and arranger David Dabbon. Casting is by Stuart Burt.

Tickets for Oh, Mary! at the Trafalgar Theatre through to 25 April 2026 are on sale now.
