Catch Me If You Can: The Musical

A local teen cast from 13 to 19 years old rehearses at least four evenings a week for three hours at a time, tirelessly perfecting their dance and song routines then works to sell tickets, construct stage sets, and promote the show with performances at the County Fair and elsewhere. San Benito County, these kids will make you proud.

But! With only a little bit of fantasy involved, the story line runs true to the actual events of this amazing teenager’s life story. You may want to hear from the real Frank Abignale—all grown up–who presents on FedTalks 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJIc16aqpO8. Amazing.
