As a teenager, Frank Abagnale Jr. charmed his way across the country in an elaborate ruse, masquerading as a pilot, doctor and lawyer… but all he was looking for was a little love. This high-flying original musical is based on the strange-but-true tale, as told in Abagnale’s own memoir and the successful 2002 Steven Spielberg film. With nothing more than his boyish charm, a big imagination and millions of dollars in forged checks, Frank succeeds at living the high life and winning the girl of his dreams. However, when Frank’s antics catch the attention of relentless FBI agent Carl Hanratty, the ultimate chase begins.
