Auditions for Catch  Me If You Can will be held on Tuesday, September 12 and 
Thursday, September 14 at 7:30  p.m. in the SCP Playhouse, 12 S. Church St.,  
Schenectady, NY  12305.  Registration for auditions begins at 7:00 p.m. each

Catch  Me If You Can, which has nothing  to do with the Leonardo DiCaprio/Tom 
Hanks movie of the same name, is an  intriguing hybrid of humor and 
edge-of-your-seat mystery.  Written in 1965 by Jack Weinstock and  Willie Gilbert, 
Catch  Me If You Can is a con game of  ever-widening circles, enveloping more and 
more characters until a surprising  endgame is revealed. 
Daniel Corban is on  his honeymoon in the Catskill Mountains of New York when 
his wife suddenly  disappears. Frantic to locate her, he contacts Inspector 
Levine. While the two  are discussing Elizabeth Corban's disap-pearance, in 
comes Father Kelleher, who  magically produces Elizabeth.  Corban denies that 
this woman is his wife, even though she can answer the  Inspector's questions 
about her husband down to the last detail. Is she his  wife? Has Daniel gone mad? 
Is the priest involved in a scheme with Elizabeth to  get his life insurance? 
What does deli man Sidney have to do with it? Is  Daniel's boss Everett 
Parker and his wife part of it as well? We find out in a  twist ending that 
surprises everyone.
