An advertising man who has brought his bride to the boss' mountain lodge for a honeymoon calls in the local police to investigate her sudden disappearance. Enter a pretty young girl insists over his protests that she is the missing wife. A priest backs up her story. A funny little man who owns a delicatessen enters and before you know it there are two murders at the isolated lodge. Set in the Catskill Mountains in 1965, we are soon introduced to a variety of characters, including a local parish priest and Corban’s wife. Mystery solved? NOT BY A LONG SHOT! Catch Me If You Can is a dance of truth and lies, and figuring out which is which offers the audience the opportunity to join in the “whodunit ballet.”.

By Greg Koytis and Mark Holliman CLICK ICON FOR CHARACTER DESCRIPTION FEBRUARY 1, 2 & 3 - ( 7:00 to 10:00 PM) CALL BACKS - by appointment only FEBRUARY 4 - (7:00 to 10:00 PM) Directed by Vince Tinebra Musically Directed by Chris Curcio Casting: Men and women between the ages of 16 and up. The production will be performed more in the style of the Fringe production. Actors can be cast of any age to play any age. A terrible water shortage, caused by a 20-year drought, has crippled the Gotham-like industrial city that serves as the setting for Urinetown: The Musical. In a mad attempt to regulate water consumption, the government has outlawed the use of private toilets. The citizenry must use public, pay-per-use amenities owned and operated by Urine Good Company (or "UGC") a private corporation run by the corrupt and iron-fisted Caldwell B. Cladwell. When regular Joe Bobby Strong decides he’s had enough, he leads a revolution to overthrow Cladwell and UGC. Caught in the middle of all this is Cladwell’s daughter, the beautiful and innocent Hope, who, of course, is in love with Bobby. This show owes more to musicals of the Golden Age than to the pop-rock scores of the more recent musicals. It satirizes capitalism, social irresponsibility, populism, bureaucracy, corporate mismanagement, and petty small town politics. It also is a satire of the Broadway musical as a form. The production is an absurdist melodrama about a city in the midst of a drought so devastating that a malevolent corporation has been able to take control of all the toilet facilities. Greed, corruption, and betrayal run rampant and the public desperately seeks relief." The result is a glorious parody that lampoons musical theatre at the same time that it celebrates a deep knowledge and love of it. |
