Extended Interview with Tony Nominee Cole Escola
Cole Escola, the actor and playwright behind the Broadway farce "Oh, Mary!," recently discussed the play's origins with correspondent Mo Rocca. "Oh, Mary!" is an over-the-top comedy centered on Mary Todd Lincoln's secret aspiration to become a cabaret star, a role that garnered Escola two Tony Award nominations. The conversation also covered Escola's upbringing in Oregon, their initial experiences in New York City, and a tour of their uniquely decorated dressing room.
Separately, Dua Lipa showcased a striking outfit in her latest Instagram post, featuring patterned leather pants and what Harper's BAZAAR described as an "If You Know, You Know" shoe. The pop star shared the photos while relaxing in the backseat of a car, apparently returning from seeing Cole. Lipa's post exemplifies her approach to fashion and self-expression, emphasizing the importance of capturing and sharing moments when one feels confident and stylish.
