Based on the hit film starring Leonardo DiCaprio and the incredible true story that inspired it, new Broadway musical Catch Me If You Can follows the life of Frank W. Abagnale Jr., who uses charm, imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks to create his ideal future. 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 Apr 08 2008It was enjoyable, but a little dated. The performances were excellent.

Written on Apr 07 2008I'm a big fan of this musical and movie, having seen it when it first played off-Broadway back in the late '80s. I also saw the national traveling show that was performed at the Curran a few years ago. However, it was a thrill to see the staged musical in its original form. I enjoyed it more than the touring company show. Although I was a bit bothered that the trio of Crystal, Ronnette and Chiffon were white or latina instead of black, they were excellent performers, singers and dancers. It was a very strong, professional and enjoyable performance overall. And I couldn't believe what great seats we got for almost half-price... right in the center orchestra! Thanks, Goldstar.

Description
Book & Lyrics by Howard Ashman
Music by Alan Menken
Based on the film by Roger Corman, Screenplay by Charles Griffith
Seymour, a down-and-out skid row floral assistant, becomes an overnight sensation when he discovers an exotic plant with a unique craving. Soon the plant grows into an ill-tempered, R&B-singing carnivore who offers him fame and fortune in exchange for feeding its growing appetite. It turns out the plant isn't just hungry and mean, it came from outer space on a mission to take over the world. This fun romp of a tale won the Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best Musical.
