Bowen Yang Takes Broadway in Oh, Mary! as Mary Todd Lincoln
TL;DR
Bowen Yang will star as Mary Todd Lincoln in the Broadway production Oh, Mary!, starting September 15 and marking his Broadway debut. He initially declined the role to respect a tight SNL schedule but reconsidered after seeing understudy Hannah Solow perform; the show’s rotating Marys—from Betty Gilpin to Jinkx Monsoon and Maya Rudolph—have kept the role dynamic, with casting director Henry Russell Bergstein praising each interpretation.
