Tituss Burgess will be Oh, Mary!'s next Mary Todd Lincoln
Briefly

Cole Escola's Broadway production, featuring the character Mary Todd Lincoln, sees a new star for a limited time. After Betty Gilpin's stint, Tituss Burgess is set to take over the role for only three weeks starting March 18. Known for his Netflix role in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, Burgess is expected to embody the outrageous portrayal of Mary Todd Lincoln as a star-driven character amidst the backdrop of the Civil War. The anticipation builds for the next replacement after Burgess, with speculation that Escola may reprise the role for Tony Awards season.
Burgess will play Mary Todd Lincoln in Cole Escola's farce for just three weeks, stepping into the role after Betty Gilpin's departure from the production.
Escola's farce features a boozy, vicious Mary Todd Lincoln, who is oblivious to the Civil War, focused instead on her goal of becoming a cabaret star.
