Tickets for the upcoming revival of Herman Wouk's The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial--starring David Schwimmer--will go on sale to Visa card holders on March 11th and to the general public on March 23rd.

The box office of the Lyceum Theatre (149 W. 45th Street) will open on March 27th, while the show itself will begin performaces at the theatre on Friday, April 14th and open on Broadway on Sunday, May 7th at 7pm.

The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial will feature David Schwimmer ("Friends"), in his Broadway debut, as Lt. Barney Greenwald, Tony Award-nominee Ivanek (The Pillowman, Two Shakespearean Actors) as Lt. Com. Philip Francis Queeg, Terry Beaver (Democracy, Twentieth Century, Henry IV) as Captain Blakely, Murphy Guyer (The Graduate, Swimming in the Shallows) as Captain Southard, Brian Reddy (Dinner at Eight, Abe Lincoln in Illinois, A Little Hotel on the Side) as Dr. Forrest Lundeen, Joe Sikora as Lt. Stephen Maryk, and Ben Fox (Our Town, Three Seconds in the Key) as Lt. Willis Keith.   The show will be directed by Tony Award-winner Jerry Zaks (La Cage aux Folles, Guys and Dolls).

Originally published as a novel in 1951, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial is the story of a naval lieutenant on trial for mutiny in wartime. The novel won Wouk the Pulitzer Prize, selling millions of copies and becoming a classic story of American history. The play premiered on Broadway in 1954 and also inspired a film starring Humphrey Bogart.

In addition to The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, Herman Wouk's work includes The Winds of War, War and Remembrance, Marjorie Morningstar, Youngblood Hawke, The Hope, The Glory, A Hole in Texas, as well as the non-fiction books This Is My God and The Will to Live On. Wouk himself served aboard two destroyer-minesweepers, the U.S.S. Zane and the U.S.S. Southhard, from 1942 to 1946.

Produced by Jeffrey Richards, Jerry Frankel, Debra Black and Roger Berlind, The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial will feature a set designed by John Lee Beatty, costumes by William Ivey Long, lighting by Paul Gallo, and sound design by Peter Fitzgerald.
