Catch Me If You Can at Dundalk Community Theatre

This bright and bouncy show features a sixties-influenced score by the Hairspray team of Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman. Based on the unbelievable true story of one of the most famous con artists in history, Frank Abagnale Jr., Catch Me If You Can is a rousing musical set in the 1960’s. We begin as Frank is captured by Agent Carl Hanratty, after years of pursuit. Frank, however, thinks the audience deserves to hear his version of the truth, and narrates his life as a hip, dance-heavy variety television show. Frank leaves home before graduating from high school and parlays a gift for telling tall tales and forging checks into an around-the-world spree; conning people by assuming a multitude of identities: airplane pilot, doctor, and lawyer, to name a few.
