In April of 20-11, the musical, Catch Me If You Can, opened on Broadway for a run of only five months. The show, based on the 2002 film, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, is on a nationwide tour that includes five shows in Lexington. It’s based on the true story of con man Frank Abagnale Junior. 

John Hingsbergen caught up with two of the actors in the show that runs through Sunday at the Lexington Opera House.

Catch Me if You Can is on-stage this weekend as part of the Broadway Live at the Opera House series. Information about this show, and the others remaining in this year’s schedule, is available at  Lexington opera house dot com.
