The box office of the Winter Garden Theatre (1634 Broadway, between 50th and 51st Streets), home of the anticipated Broadway transfer of the Royal Shakespeare Company's critically acclaimed theatrical event Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 is now open for business.

The box office will be open daily from 10:00am to 8:30pm from Monday through Saturday, and closed on Sundays, until the start of performances on March 20, 2015, at which time the box office will open for business seven days a week.

Tickets for Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 are also available for purchase online at www.telecharge.com and by calling (212) 239-6200.

Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 will begin previews on Friday, March 20, 2015, at the Winter Garden Theatre, with an opening day set for Thursday, April 9, 2015.

Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 is based on the best selling novels by Dame Hilary Mantel (Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies) about the deceit, betrayal, and intrigue of the court of Henry VIII, and adapted for the stage by Mike Poulton. This special event invites theatergoers to be part of a unique theatrical experience, similar to the Royal Shakespeare Company's award winning production of The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby.

Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 features a company of more than twenty actors, headed by Ben Miles as Thomas Cromwell, Lydia Leonard as Anne Boleyn, and Nathaniel Parker as King Henry VIII, all under the direction of Olivier Award nominee Jeremy Herrin, who makes his New York City directing début. The Royal Shakespeare Company is appearing with the permission of Actors' Equity Association.

The production features scenic and costume design by Christopher Oram, lighting design by Paule Constable (Part 1) and David Plater (Part 2), sound design by Nick Powell, music by Stephen Warbeck, and movement by Siân Williams.

Wolf Hall: Parts 1 & 2 is produced by Jeffrey Richards, Jerry Frankel, and Matthew Byam Shaw, Nia Janis & Nick Salmon for Playful Productions UK, and The Shubert Organization.

Both parts of the production can either be seen in one day with a dinner break of approximately two-and-a-half hours, or can be seen on two different days.

The Royal Shakespeare Company produces theatre at its best, made in Stratford-upon-Avon and shared around the world, for everyone to enjoy. Shakespeare has been performed and celebrated in Stratford for centuries and the RSC has trained generations of the very best theatre makers since the Company was founded in 1961. We pioneer contemporary approaches to Shakespeare's plays, as well as staging the work of those who inspired him and the work of today's playwrights.

Everyone at the Royal Shakespeare Company, from actors to technicians, milliners to musicians, plays a part in creating the world you see on stage. Their work begins its life at our Stratford workshops and theatres and we share it with audiences across the world through our touring, residencies, cinema broadcasts and online activity. So wherever you experience the RSC, you experience work that is made in Shakespeare's hometown. www.rsc.org.uk
