Even with all the bases covered and loaded given this stupendous creative team, a cast of veritable Broadway all-stars and a surprise bottom of the ninth pop fly play courtesy of Norbert Leo Butz's fresh Tony win, CATCH IF YOU CAN can't seem to get the break it deserves on Broadway. Sure, it just passed the hundred performance mark and it is alive and well, but it deserves far more praise than it has been given. After all, Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman's score is every bit as ingratiating and endearing as their work on the Tony-winning Best Musical HAIRSPRAY and for that fact alone CATCH ME IF YOU CAN commands the utmost attention from any cast album collector or Broadway baby interested in keeping up with all the scores and stats of Broadway‘s best. And, yes, indeed, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN possesses a score among the very best of the 21st century and the best new score on Broadway this season. The songstack as represented on the brand new Original Broadway Cast Recording is even more entertaining and enlivening than the show's songs onstage - although they have all their own allure there - and that is a huge credit to the fiercely talented songwriting team who knocks each and every pitch clear out of the park; here, just as always. CATCH ME IF YOU CAN is a fully-decked game of far-flung, fun, and not-so-frivolous fantasy ably aided by some of the most inspiring leading male performances in musical theatre in many years thanks to the wonderful work by the aforementioned Butz, plus impossibly charismatic leading player Aaron Tveit and a sensitive and suave Tom Wopat.
Last month, CATCH ME IF YOU CAN released a new promo video for the show, which featured leading man Aaron Tviet, his female co-stars, and the music of Adele! Now the show has launched a video contest that gives fans the opportunity to win tickets to the show! To enter, sinply use the footage of Tveit and his lovely ladies and pair it with a song of your choosing. Then post your video creation to Youtube and post it on the show's Facebook page.
Yesterday, July 6, the cast of Catch Me If You Can celebrated 100 performances on Broadway. BroadwayWorld was on hand for the event, as were Susan Lucci and Laura Linney, and below we bring you photo coverage of the backstage celebration!
Norbert Leo Butz, Bobby Cannavale, Reeve Carney, Jennifer Damiano, Paige Davis, Sutton Foster, Joel Grey, John Larroquette, Joe Mantello, Patrick Page, Annabella Sciorra, Aaron Tveit and more join Bernadette Peters and Mary Tyler Moore for Broadway Barks, 2011.
Happy 4th of July! Take a trip down memory lane by visiting Part 2 of our 'Broadway Get's Patriotic' series in honor of our nation's independence. Remeber when Aaron Tveit sang the National Anthem to kick of the 2011 Broadway softball season? Or when Karen Olivo led the firey ladies of the WEST SIDE STORY revival in a rendition of 'America'? Or when James Cagney first performed 'You're a Grand Old Flag'?
