‘Oh, Mary!’ Mania Takes Over L.A.: Director Sam Pinkleton on Bringing the Unruly Broadway Comedy Phenomenon to Full Houses at the Ahmanson

According to Variety, the hit play ‘Oh, Mary!’, which tells a hysterical and ahistorical story of presidential spouse Mary Todd Lincoln and her aspirations for a show business career, has opened at the Ahmanson Theatre in Los Angeles. Director Sam Pinkleton noted that the production is playing to sold-out crowds in the 2,100-seat venue, stating that the play’s bold style works well in large rooms. The production, which previously found success on Broadway, is scheduled for a nearly month-long run in Los Angeles.
