An energetic, joyful night of escapist fun. Read our BWW critic's review.

Catch Me If You Can is not Molly Smith’s first musical with a con artist at the heart of it. In 2012, she directed a hit production of The Music Man, whose main character, Professor Harold Hill, could give Abagnale a run for his money.

Arena Stage at the Mead Center for American Theater has announced casting for a new version of the Tony-nominated musical comedy Catch Me If You Can.

My journey to this work started by Turku City theatre's Teosavaus, a preview panel with the director Snoopi Siren and two of the actors, old-timer Taneli Mäkelä and newcomer Elias Keränen, interviewed by the head of art department Mikko Kouki. It was a good set of people in terms of hearing about the rehearsal process from different perspectives.

Gender may not be real, but I’d like to see these non-traditional castings become real! I am a big fan of MCC’s Miscast gala. I watch the performances every year and daydream about what I would sing, if I was ever so lucky to be a part of it. Because Miscast is a little over a month away, I have come up with some “miscast” castings of my own! I have cast women in roles traditionally played by men, and vice versa!
