Producers have announced the full company joining Lolly Adefope in Oh, Mary! at the Trafalgar Theatre. Adefope makes her West End debut as Mary Todd Lincoln from 28 September to 5 December 2026 in Cole Escola's Olivier and Tony Award-winning comedy, directed by Sam Pinkleton.
Who joins Lolly Adefope
Lucy Frederick plays Mary's Chaperone, J.R. Ballantyne is Mary's Husband's Assistant, Vinnie Heaven is Mary's Teacher and Syrus Lowe plays Mary's Husband. The smash-hit comedy is now booking into early 2027 at Trafalgar Theatre, with Adefope's engagement covering the autumn block from late September.
Why this casting matters
Oh, Mary! arrived in London as one of the sharpest comedy transfers of the season. Pairing Adefope, known for Ghosts and a run of screen comedy leads, with Escola's anarchic take on Mary Todd Lincoln keeps the show's West End momentum after its award-winning New York life. A confirmed company for the autumn window is the cue for anyone who has been waiting on cast specifics before booking.
Dates and the booking window
Adefope's announced Trafalgar dates run 28 September to 5 December 2026, while the production itself continues to book beyond that into January 2027. That means the autumn chapter has a clear cast story; later weeks may see further company changes, so check the show page for the performance you want.
Should you book?
