Video: Cole Escola's Most Wonderfully Unhinged YouTube Sketches

Cole Escola is at the center of Broadway's hottest new show, as both the writer and star of Oh, Mary!, now running at the Lyceum Theatre. They’ve already received a Drama Desk Award, a Theatre World Award, and two Outer Critics Circle Awards for the acclaimed play and this summer, they’re making their Broadway debut with the show.

You might already know Cole from their many television appearances (and writing) on such series as: “Search Party,” “At Home with Amy Sedaris,” “Difficult People”, “Man Seeking Woman,” “Mozart in the Jungle,” “Ziwe”, “Hacks,” and “The Other Two”, but did you know they also have a huge following on YouTube?

Cole was the co-creator, writer, and star of the lo-fi cult-hit TV show “Jeffrey and Cole Casserole,” and were named one of Vanity Fair's “25 Best Performances of 2023" for their special "Our Home Out West,” and “Best Sketch Comic of 2020” by the New York Times for their special “Help! I’m Stuck!,” which they filmed alone in their apartment during quarantine.
