About the Show

Rachel McAdams stars in this touching Broadway play about resilience and community.

Rachel McAdams, an Academy Award nominee, takes the lead in the Broadway premiere of Mary Jane, penned by Pulitzer Prize finalist Amy Herzog (known for 4000 Miles and the recent Tony-nominated A Doll’s House adaptation).

The narrative is a powerful portrayal of a single mother navigating an extraordinarily challenging family situation. Despite seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Mary Jane relies on boundless optimism, humor, and the support of her makeshift family—women who guide her through each day.
