Based on the DreamWorks Motion Picture
Book by Terrence McNally
Music by Marc Shaiman
Lyrics by Scott Wittman and Marc Shaiman

The Musical That Lies, Cheats, and Steals Your Heart!

Before Instagram filters and fake résumés, there was Frank Abagnale, Jr.... teenager, con artist, and the most charming fellow to ever impersonate a Pan Am pilot, Harvard doctor, and hotshot lawyer!. He’s got a dream, a typewriter, and a whole lot of blank checks, and he’s not afraid to use them!

Actor and acress laughing in a scene

But hot on his (very stylish) heels is Carl Hanratty, a no-nonsense FBI agent who’s more paper trail than runway-ready.

As Frank dances from city to city with smooth jazz and smoother lies, Carl is always one step behind… but closing in fast.

Based on the hit film and the mind-blowingly true story, Catch Me If You Can is a high-flying, toe-tapping, big-band musical caper full of heart, hustle, and perfectly tailored suits.

With a knockout score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray) and a slick book by Terrence McNally (Ragtime), this show proves that growing up is hard... especially when you're making it up as you go.

Catch it… if you can! (You won't be sorry!)
