Catch Me If You Can, the new Broadway musical comedy based on the hit Stephen Spielberg film, is the incredible true story of a teenager who runs away from home in search of the glamorous life with only his boyish charm, big imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks. Hear members of the cast and creative team talk about their new production, along with performances of a couple of favorite songs. The event will be held this afternoon, June 28, 12-1 PM at 92YTribeca.

Aaron Tveit (Frank Abagnale, Jr.) received the 2009 Actors Equity Association Clarence Derwent Award for Most Promising Actor, A Helen Hayes Award and a Lucille Lortel nomination for his work originating the role of the son Gabe in the Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway musical Next to Normal.
