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. Adaped in 1965 by Jack Weinstock and Willie Gilbert, Catch
Me If You Can by Robert Thomas 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.
