Jinkx Monsoon, celebrated for winning two seasons of RuPaul's Drag Race, is stepping into the Broadway role of Mary Todd Lincoln in 'Oh, Mary!', following Titus Burgess. The production, created by Cole Escola—who made history as the first non-binary actor to win a Tony for Leading Actor in a Play—reimagines Mary as a comedic, flawed character. Monsoon, currently involved in 'Pirates! The Penzance Musical', will assume the role from August 4 to September 27, 2025. The performer expressed excitement about joining the creative team and contributing to this unique portrayal.
I walked into the Lyceum Theatre and sat down with the President of Oh, Mary! and said, 'I want to make history.' And that's what this is.
Now-I've said it before and I'll say it again: Cole Escola is the funniest person alive. Oh, Mary! is one of the best, funniest, most energizing things I've seen in my life.
