Meg Stalter shared a heartwarming reunion with her Hacks costar Hannah Einbinder backstage at Broadway’s Oh, Mary! this week, delighting fans as both actresses continue celebrating a successful year.
Einbinder stopped by New York City’s Lyceum Theatre after a July 22 performance of the hit comedy, where she posed for photos with Stalter backstage. The reunion comes at an exciting time for the duo, as both have earned nominations for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series at the 2026 Emmy Awards for their performances in Hacks.

The backstage visit also marks a positive moment for Stalter after a recent health setback. Earlier this month, the actress revealed she had been forced to miss several performances of Oh, Mary! after developing bronchitis. In a social media update, she thanked fellow performers Hannah Solow and Jackie Sanders for stepping into the production while she recovered, reassuring fans that the show remained in great hands.

Stalter made her Broadway debut as Mary Todd Lincoln on July 6 and is scheduled to remain with Oh, Mary! through Sept. 12. Written by Cole Escola and directed by Sam Pinkleton, the acclaimed comedy offers a wildly imaginative take on the former First Lady, portraying her as an aspiring cabaret performer in the days leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination.

Before opening night, Stalter joked that she planned to rely on her improvisational instincts rather than overthinking the role, showcasing the comedic style that has made her a fan favorite.
Einbinder isn’t the only Hacks star supporting Stalter’s Broadway run. Jean Smart also attended the celebration following Stalter’s debut performance earlier this month, highlighting the close bond among the cast.
As awards season approaches, the backstage reunion serves as another reminder of the chemistry that has made Hacks one of television’s most beloved comedies. Fans can catch all five seasons of the Emmy-nominated series streaming on HBO Max, while Oh, Mary! continues its successful Broadway run.
