CATCH ME IF YOU CAN Kicks Off Pre-Show Fun at Segerstrom Center, Now thru 6/30

By:

One hour prior to each performance of CATCH ME IF YOU CAN at Segerstrom Center, patrons are invited to enjoy entertaining and interactive pre-show activities, including chances to win prizes, today, June 25 - 30, 2013.

Upon arrival, 'passports' will be available to those participating. The 'passport' will help guide participants through three stations that will be set up in Segerstrom Hall's lobbies, representing the three 'professions' that Frank Abagnale, Jr. held: doctor, lawyer and pilot. Each station will have a photo opportunity or themed game and a display featuring fun facts from the era about each profession he impersonated. Participants will have their 'passports' stamped at each station.

Those who receive all three stamps will be entered into a drawing for various prizes. One grand prize winner will receive a pair of tickets to an upcoming show at the Center and a $50.00 gift certificate from Patina Restaurant Group, perfect to be used for a pre-show meal. One entrant will be chosen at each performance to receive a Segerstrom Center t-shirt. All participants will receive a CATCH ME IF YOU CAN luggage tag (while supplies last).

CATCH ME IF YOU CAN captures the astonishing true story of Frank Abagnale, Jr., a world-class con artist who passed himself off as a doctor, a lawyer and a jet pilot - all before the age of 21. With straight-arrow FBI agent Carl Hanratty on Frank's trail, we're off on a jet-setting, cat-and-mouse chase, as a jazzy, swinging-sixties score keeps this adventure in constant motion. In the end, Agent Hanratty learns he and Frank aren't so very different after all and Frank finds out what happens when love catches up to a man on the run.
