The Mary Show brings together the sharpest comedians and variety acts working today for an evening that culminates in a show-stopping Broadway performance. Described by Neely as 'full blown all star energy,' the musical comedy variety show is known for its live piano, its refusal to sit still, and for ending on something that stops the room.

The June 29th lineup features Chloe Troast ('Saturday Night Live,' Sweethearts), Zach Schiffman ('Full Frontal with Samantha Bee ,' 'Tooning Out the News'), Jon Rudnitsky ('Saturday Night Live,' Catch-22), Camden Garcia ('Hacks,' 'Frasier'), Chris Murphy (The Housewife and the Hustler, 'Netflix Is A Joke'), and Ivy Wolk (Anora, If I Had Legs I'd Kick You), with piano by Farrah Rotman (Louis Sudler Prize, Yale). The evening features with musical performances by Keri René Fuller (Wicked, SIX) and Natalie Walker (The Big Gay Jamboree, White Girl in Danger).

For this installment, Neely will dedicate her set to the untold story behind the viral moment that changed her life - nearly six years to the day since she posted her first Covid musical video on Twitter. 'Since it'll be six years almost to the day since I posted my first Twitter Covid musical video,' Neely has said, 'I've decided to dedicate my set to the untold story of what was actually going on in my life at the time.'

About Mary Neely

Mary Neely is an actor, writer, director, and producer with a knack for turning chaos into comedy and raw emotion into indelible storytelling. She first captured the world's attention with viral pandemic-era recreations of Broadway musicals filmed on her iPhone - no tripod, no crew, just the costumes and props she had around her apartment - which drew praise from Lin-Manuel Miranda , Andrew Lloyd Webber , and Kelli O'Hara and earned her recognition as part of 'Best Theater of 2020' by both The New York Times and The Washington Post. Those videos changed the course of her life, inspiring her move to New York and setting in motion everything that followed.

Neely co-wrote and stars in the feature film Or Something - a lo-fi walk-and-talk drama shot in six days across New York City, now streaming on MUBI - which opened at the Quad Cinema to critical acclaim. Shot for significantly under a million dollars and indebted to the DNA of Linklater, Cassavetes, and early Mumblecore, it emerged from a two-year process of Neely and co-writer Kareem Rahma meeting in coffee shops and apartments, transcribing their real conversations onto the page. Variety, 10 Magazine, Numéro Netherlands, and The Moveable Fest have all profiled her work extensively since the film's release.

She can currently be seen in the Tony Award-winning Broadway revival of Arthur Miller 's Death of a Salesman alongside Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf , directed by Joe Mantello - for which she received the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Ensemble. Additional film and television credits include Swiped (Hulu), Valley Girl, Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile, Happiness for Beginners, and "Law & Order: SVU". She co-wrote and stars in the SXSW pilot Stars Diner and is currently developing an unnamed independent feature film.
