Season 12 continued on the mainstage
with Herman Wouk’s military masterpiece
THE CAINE MUTINY COURT-MARTIAL
Judson Theatre Company’s spring production (April 24-27, 2025) was Herman Wouk’s The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial. Directed by JTC’s artistic director Daniel Haley, it marked the return of Emmy Award winner John Wesley Shipp (The Flash, Dawson’s Creek) to the Judson stage in the iconic role of Captain Queeg. He was last on our stage in 2016(!) in Twelve Angry Men. He was joined by David A. Gregory (One Life to Live, The Good Fight) as Greenwald.
It was also such a pleasure to welcome back some JTC favorites: Jacob Pressley appeared in his first mainstage show; he’s previously been our leading man in the Summer Theatre Festival productions of They’re Playing Our Song, The Last Five Years, and Gutenberg! The Musical. Matthew Tyler was back for his fifth mainstage show, having been seen in And Then There Were None, Witness for the Prosecution, The Mousetrap, and Gaslight. After a multi-year absence from our stage, Rick McDermott was back as Blakely; he’s appeared in more shows at JTC than any other actor: Twelve Angry Men, And Then There Were None, The Sunshine Boys, The Miracle Worker, and Witness for the Prosecution.
Making their JTC debuts were Colton Liberatore, Jasper Newell, Hamlin Raith, and Thomas Nash Tetterton.

Fall 2025 Mainstage Production
PATRICK DUFFY and LINDA PURL
in celebrated playwright A.R. Gurney’s
epistolary romance about
first loves and second chances.
LOVE LETTERS is a disarmingly funny and unforgettably emotional portrait about the powerful connection of love. Two friends share fifty years of friendship through countless letters—from grade school valentines to romantic missives, they express their hopes and fears, loves and losses. But long after the letters are done, the real question remains: Have they made the right choices or is the love of their life only a letter away?
A.R. Gurney’s Pulitzer Prize-finalist play stars real-life sweethearts PATRICK DUFFY (“Dallas”, “Step by Step”) and returning JTC favorite LINDA PURL (“The Office”, “Happy Days”)
