The MD Now® Urgent Care Slow Burn Theatre Company launches its highly anticipated 2025/2026 season—presented by United Community Bank—with the high-flying, jazz-infused hit Catch Me If You Can: The Musical. The production runs October 11–26, 2025, in the Amaturo Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, featuring an open-captioned performance on Sunday, October 19 at 2 p.m.
Based on the hit DreamWorks motion picture and the incredible true story of Frank Abagnale Jr., Catch Me If You Can follows the teenage con artist who successfully poses as a pilot, doctor, and lawyer—all while being pursued by FBI agent Carl Hanratty. This high-energy musical cat-and-mouse chase is packed with dazzling choreography, swinging jazz numbers, and a touch of Broadway glamour.
Nominated for four Tony Awards, including Best Musical, Catch Me If You Can features a book by Terrence McNally and an irresistible score by Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman, the Tony-winning team behind Hairspray. With a tone that blends the sleek sophistication of Ocean’s Eleven and the razzle-dazzle of Chicago, this musical delivers both spectacle and heart as it explores themes of ambition, identity, and redemption.
Leading the talented cast are Jarod Bakum* as Frank Abagnale Jr. and Ben Sandomir* as Carl Hanratty, supported by Matthew Korinko* (Frank Abagnale Sr.), Jeanine Levy* (Paula Abagnale), Samy Berman (Brenda Strong), Michael Cartwright (Roger Strong), and Britte Steele (Carol Strong).
They are joined by an exceptional ensemble: Aaron Atkinson, Alexander Blanco, Kalista Curbelo, Madeline Dunn, Steven Ross Dybash, Eli Flynn, Tanner Fults, Amanda Lopez, Michael Materdomini, Kristi Rose Mills, Taylor Hilt Mitchell*, Cat Pagano*, Cameron Scott, Mikayla Queeley, Allyson Rosenblum, Izaiah Scott, Kimberly Sessions, Ashley Valent, and Alexandra Van Hasselt.
At the helm is director Patrick Fitzwater, leading a dynamic creative team that includes Paul Tine (music direction), Cat Pagano (choreography), Nikolas Serrano (scenic design), Eric Norbury (lighting), Rick Peña (costume design), Timothy Dickey (technical direction), Amy Rauchwerger* (production stage manager), and Jolie Rubinchik* (assistant stage manager).
