Tim Daly will play Lt. Com. John Challee in the Broadway revival of Herman Wouk’s classic 1954 play The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. Directed by Jerry Zaks, the production will begin performances on April 14 at the Lyceum Theater and is set to open officially on May 7.

Adapted by Wouk from his Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, the courtroom drama concerns a Navy lieutenant who has been brought up on charges of mutiny by his power-hungry commander. The cast also includes David Schwimmer (Lt. Barney Greenwald), Zeljko Ivanek (Capt. Philip Queeg), Terry Beaver (Capt. Blakely), Murphy Guyer (Capt. Southard), Brian Reddy (Dr. Forrest Lundeen), and Ben Fox (Lt. Willis Keith). Additional casting is yet to be announced. The show’s design team includes John Lee Beatty (sets), Wiliam Ivey Long (costumes), Paul Gallo (lighting), and Dan Moses Schreier (sound).

Daly’s only previous Broadway appearance was in Coastal Disturbances (1987), for which he won a Theatre World Award. Off-Broadway, he has been seen in Oliver, Oliver, Fables for Friends, and The Exonerated. Daly starred in the TV series Wings, The Fugitive, and Eyes.
