Catch Me If You Can at Boston Conservatory Theater

Based on the hit film and the incredible true story, Catch Me If You Can is the high-flying musical comedy about chasing dreams and not getting caught. Nominated for four Tony Awards, including Best Musical, this delightfully entertaining show was created by a Tony Award–winning "dream team," with a book by Terrence McNally (The Full Monty, Ragtime) and a swinging score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray). Seeking fame and fortune, precocious teenager Frank Abignale Jr. runs away from home to begin an unforgettable adventure. With nothing more than his boyish charm, a big imagination, and millions of dollars in forged checks, Frank successfully poses as a pilot, a doctor, and a lawyer, living the high life and winning the girl of his dreams. But when Frank's lies catch the attention of FBI agent Carl Hanratty, Carl pursues Frank across the country to make him pay for his crimes.

Directed and choreographed by Michelle Chassé.
Musical direction by Bill Casey.
Conducted by Peter Mansfield.
