Review: MRS PRESIDENT, Charing Cross Theatre
by Louise Penn - Jan 28, 2026

In Mrs President, an overuse of technical gimmicks reveals the lack of a cohesive, structured script. Mrs President is ultimately a frustrating and disjointed experience, with little insight into the woman it wishes to rehabilitate. In creating the famous photographs of Mary Lincoln, almost exactly in costume and pose, there is no scope for dramatic licence or invention.

by Franco Milazzo - Dec 30, 2025

Looking back over 2025, it appears I sat in a dark room and wrote barely legible thoughts into a notebook on about 150-odd occasions.

Review Roundup: What Did the Critics Think of Cole Escola's OH, MARY!?
by Aliya Al-Hassan - Dec 19, 2025

Oh, Mary! is an uproariously dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Unrequited yearning, alcoholism, and suppressed desires abound in this 80-minute one-act play that finally examines the forgotten life and dreams of Mrs. Lincoln, through the lens of playwright Cole Escola. The production has now landed in the West End-but what did the critics think?

Review: OH, MARY!, Starring Mason Alexander Park

There has been much hype about Cole Escola's comedy play, Oh, Mary!, spoofing the lives of a former US President and his wife Mary in the days leading up to his assassination. Its Off-Broadway run was extended twice, moved to Broadway where it is still playing and now lands in the West End. So does it merit the buzz? Yes, and no.
