The producers of The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial are offering 100 free tickets to every performance during May – "Memorial Day" month – to members of the Armed Forces.
Legendary author Herman Wouk, who is nearly 91 years old and served on two minesweepers in the Pacific during WWII, addressed the audience following the opening night performance on May 7th, stating: "I dedicate this production of
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial to the guys in Iraq who fight the war."
In keeping with their playwright's sentiments—and with the full support of stars David Schwimmer, Željko Ivanek,
Tim Daly, director
Jerry Zaks, and the entire company—the producers of the revival have announced the following:
"We are honored to invite all current members of the Armed Forces as our guests to see
The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial during the month of May. In this small way, we hope to show our support for these brave men and women who put themselves in the line of fire on our behalf."
To receive their complimentary tickets, soldiers should report to duty at the box office of the
Gerald Schoenfeld Theatre (236 West 45th St.) one and a half hours before show-time, in uniform and with a Military ID. The tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis.
The performance schedule is Tuesday-Saturday at 8pm, Wednesday and Saturday at 2pm, and Sunday at 3pm.
The producing team is
Jeffrey Richards,
Jerry Frankel, Debra Black,
Roger Berlind, Ronald Frankel, Roy Gottleib, Terry Schnuck, Sheldon Stein, and
Barry Weisbord, in association with
Roy Furman
