Theatre Review: Oh, Mary! (Lyceum Theatre, Broadway) ★★★★★

The skill required to craft and perform truly great comedy is often underrated, so its refreshing to see the slew of much-deserved plaudits for Cole Escola’s Oh, Mary! that currently adorn the marquee of Broadway’s Lyceum Theatre.

'Despite getting no love from the Oscars this awards season, All of Us Strangers was undoubtedly one of the best movies of the year.

The romance-drama-fantasy film, written and directed by Weekend and Looking powerhouse Andrew Haigh, stars Andrew Scott as a lonely writer named Adam living in London who strikes up a flirtation with his beautiful neighbor Harry (Paul Mescal) on the same night he starts seeing the ghosts of his parents in his childhood home.

Soon, Adam and Harry are in a relationship, growing closer every day, as Adam meets with the ghosts of his parents, who are the same age they were when they died in a car crash 30 years earlier.

The dreamy film also stars Jamie Bell as Adam’s father and Claire Foy as Adam’s mother. It was released in theaters in the US on December 22, 2023, and now, will finally be available to stream for the first time!

All of Us Strangers is officially coming to Hulu on February 22, so get your tissue boxes ready! The film will also be available to purchase from digital retailers including Prime Video, Apple TV, and Vudu/Fandango.

Despite the Oscars snubbery, All of Us Strangers led all nominated films at the 15th annual Dorian Awards (presented by GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ+ Entertainement Critics), with nine nominations, including Film of the Year, LGBTQ+ Film of the Year, Director, Screenplay, and acting noms for Andrew Scott, Paul Mescal, and Claire Foy.'
