"There’s always a way to navigate complicated stuff,”&nbsp;Alex Edelman&nbsp;told Variety about his newest show, What Are You Going to Do, a venture into difficult political and personal territory.&nbsp;One of the most critically hailed comedians of his generation, Edelman is a Bostonian best known for solo shows that blur the line between his stand-up roots and narrative-driven storytelling. He makes his triumphant return to the Colonial after multiple sold-out runs of Just for Us, which played over 500 shows worldwide and garnered a Tony for its Broadway incarnation and an Emmy for the resulting HBO special. He’s also written for many TV shows, including Peacock’s The Office spin-off, "The Paper."

Join Yotam Ottolenghi for an intimate and energizing evening celebrating his new cookbook Simple Too, the long-awaited follow-up to his bestselling Ottolenghi Simple. In conversation, he’ll share how Simple Too was born from real life: recipes that work with you, not against you — dishes you can begin with half a plan and still end with a deeply satisfying meal. Expect laughter, honesty, and that signature Ottolenghi spark as he declares, “The lemon is back!” and explains why bold flavor remains at the heart of simplicity.

Oh, Mary! is a dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Unrequited yearning, alcoholism, and suppressed desires abound in this 80-minute one-act play that finally examines the forgotten life and dreams of Mrs. Lincoln, through the lens of an idiot (playwright Cole Escola). Declared “one of the best comedies in years” by The New York Times, Oh, Mary! received two Tony Awards including Best Direction of a Play (Sam Pinkleton), Drama League Awards for Outstanding Play and Outstanding Direction of a Play, as well as a special citation from the New York Drama Critics’ Circle. It was named a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
