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. It begins 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. You will see Frank, as a teenager, run away from his unhappy home to live a life of great adventure, conning people by assuming a multitude of identities: airplane pilot, doctor and lawyer, to name a few.
A fast, rollicking musical by the creative team behind “Hairspray,” “Catch Me If You Can” tells the tale of an ingenious, yet lonely, boy looking for his place in the world.
Don’t miss the talented cast and crew of Calhoun High School’s Performing Arts Program. This will be the first show performed in the renovated auditorium.
