Best Comedy Theatre in December 2024

Oh Mary! at Lyceum Theater

Oh Mary!

After delighting audiences at the Lucille Lortel Theatre, Cole Escola's brand new play is coming to Broadway! Oh Mary! Is a dark comedy, with Escola playing former United States first lady Mary Todd Lincoln, whilst they break down her life from the inside, and in Escola's own words, through the lens of an idiot. Tony Award nominee Sam Pinkleton directs, and Escola is joined by Lucille Lortel nominee Conrad Ricamora and James Scully, among others. Don't miss out on this exciting and hilarious chance to see the First Lady as you've never seen her!

Book of Mormon at Eugene O'Neill Theatre

Book of Mormon

From Trey Parker and Matt Stone, four-time Emmy Award-winning creators of South Park comes this outrageously funny and risque Broadway musical about a pair of mismatched Mormon boys sent on a mission to a place that's about as far from Salt Lake City as you can get. Be prepared for a show where no holds are barred and perhaps cover yourself with a napkin as you'll be spluttering in comic awesomeness throughout.

A John Waters Christmas at New York City Winery

A John Waters Christmas

John Waters loves Christmas, and he wants you to know. The legendary cult-filmmaker takes to the stage with his traditional one-man monologue, extolling the virtues of everyone's favorite holiday, from offering advice on Christmas films and music to asking the important questions you've always wanted to be answered by the people's pervert, such as 'Is Santa erotic?'

Perfect Crime at Anne L. Bernstein Theater

Perfect Crime

Perfect Crime goes well beyond traditional mystery play. It is a sexy, compelling thriller, with well-timed surprises and laughs that relieve a growing dramatic tension. The main character is a Harvard-educated psychiatrist accused of bumping off her wealthy British husband. But when a handsome young detective comes calling to investigate, is everything as straight-cut as it appears?
