Cole Escola and Darren Criss Embrace Chaos and Crying on Broadway


Cole Escola and Darren Criss discuss their shows “Oh, Mary!" and “Maybe Happy Ending."

In a year that’s overflowing with splashy revivals and screen adaptations, audiences have fallen for “Maybe Happy Ending,” a tenderhearted musical about two robots in love, and “Oh, Mary!,” a deranged, comedic look at Abraham Lincoln’s wife. Escola leans back, a devilish glint in their eyes, and interjects, “Well, people who know Mary Todd Lincoln … some of her friends have come to see the show.”
