Broadway Review: CATCH ME IF YOU CAN
Catch Me If You Can, the new Broadway musical is an extremely well constructed musical with a terrific cast. But the show has a couple of problems with it, for starters its book is humorless and and its songs, bland. It's based on the real-life con-man turned 30+ year crime consultant, Frank Abagnale, Jr. and the FBI agent who hunts him down. Leondardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks starred in Stephen Spielberg’s 2002 film of the same title.
