Abagnale successfully poses as a pilot, a doctor and a lawyer -- and wins the girl of his dreams -- before FBI agent Carl Hanratty finally catches up to him. The Tony Award-winning "dream team" behind Catch Me If You Can includes playwright Terrence McNally (The Full Monty, Ragtime) and composers Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman (Hairspray). Learn More

Written on Jun 01 2012The play combines what makes live theatre like no other experience.
The script had depth, good conversation, wit, developed characters, and topics worth consideration.
The production had great live music, wonderful mostly period costumes, good direction and delightful actors.
The actor playing the protagonist was exceptional, with several other actors equally outstanding--and all the acting fine.
Written on May 31 2012This production was simply amazing. Beautifully staged, first rate script and brilliantly acted. Wonderful!
Written on May 31 2012This was a spectacular production! Our group of four enjoyed it immensely. With small theatre productions, one never knows what to expect. But, this exceeded our expectations. Each and every actor turned in an excellent performance and the material was thought-provoking, but funny and entertaining as well. And, for the discounted price of our Goldstar ticket, it just added to the overall experience. Highly recommended!
Written on May 27 2012Extremely well done production. The acting, costumes, sound, use of the space... everything was very well done and this is easily one of the most enjoyable productions I've seen in the Mpls/St. Paul area and is a reminder of why I love living in this city!
Written on May 25 2012very fine acting, timing and sets
Written on May 25 2012As a theater practitioner, I loved the script, the staging, the acting. Costumes were fabulous. At intermission, I wasn't sure how I was going to feel at the end, but the second act blew me out of the water. An incredible performance of an incredible production.
Written on May 25 2012Wade Vaughn is brilliant as the lead. The whole cast and production are a delight. Don't miss this show!!!
Written on May 25 2012Wonderful performances and costume design, great script!
Written on May 25 2012Great acting and excellent production values, especially costumes and lighting.
Written on May 21 2012Compleat Female Stage Beauty was an enthralling tale of the changing times of the 16th century british theater. Funny and thought provoking, Stage Beauty will keeping you on your toes. Can a man truly play women better than themselves? You be the judge.
Walking Shadow Theater Company puts out yet another wonderful show, with spectacular costumes and innovative sets. An all around great production that will have you talking about it all the way home. This seasons must see!
Written on May 21 2012Fantastic acting, lovely costumes, fascinating story very well-told.
Walking Shadow never disappoints.My only complaint was that there was a floor light shining in my eyes at times because I was sitting on far house left.
Written on May 21 2012Absolutely delicious! Moving, funny, entertaining on many levels. Well acted, great technical elements (still swooning over the costuming). Will probably go see it again.
Written on May 21 2012Fabulous performances, great and very witty writing. We are so spoiled to have such talent in our midst - the intimate atmosphere in the Theatre Garage is fabulous. They make such good use of the limited space - you feel as if you were part of the play as an audience member. Wade Vaughn and the rest of the cast were genius! My friend and I were thoroughly rapt and entertained throughout the entire performance. Thank you!

Quotes & Highlights
- "a big and very enjoyable play full of chewy intellectual questions... Director John Heimbuch understands this play and its setting well... Vaughn digs into [his] meaty role with an actor's talons and claws. He creates a Kynaston of effete and supreme arrogance... He and Froiland bristle with realism as Othello and Desdemona." --Star Tribune
- "Walking Shadow Theatre Company is offering a smart local premiere of this tale, which, though set in the early 1600s, has plenty to say to contemporary audiences about gender roles, power and the passions that drive us... Wade A. Vaughn deftly trods a fine line between the actor who plays women with masterful affectation and the off-stage man whose life is significantly more nuanced." --Pioneer Press
