SYNOPSIS
WHEN I WAS 16, I had no idea I’d have written a book, had a movie made, or have
a musical open on Broadway that followed my adventures as a teenager. At 16, a runaway and alone, I went day to day with whatever opportunity presented itself. “A door
closes, a window opens, right?” In my case, those windows were cracked just wide
enough to allow me to squeeze through to get me to the next day.
After I served my time in prison, a bigger window opened up. This one allowed me
to pay back society ten-fold. For nearly 40 years I’ve been helping corporations and
government agencies make committing forgery and counterfeit much more dificult. Through the technologies I’ve created, your birth certiicate, your driver’s license, cash,
and the checks you write are much safer and more secure. No system, of course, is
foolproof and anyone who thinks so fails to take into consideration the creativity of
fools – take it if from a guy who was very foolish from ages 16-21. Enjoy the memorable music from this show. It’s my music, from my time. I remember
hearing the irst four songs when this show was being developed, and I was blown
away. I thought all the music was fantastic. “Jet Set” is my favorite. “Butter Outta
Cream” is another favorite because they take one of my dad’s expressions and make it
into an incredible song. “Don’t Break the Rules” just stops the show, “Goodbye” is so
very powerful, and Kerry Butler’s “Fly, Fly Away” gives me goosebumps. The music and
the story really carry with it a message that I hope comes across – and that is a message
of redemption. No matter what has gone before, you can start again.
It’s the opportunity that this great country gives you – and it’s waiting for you.
– FRANK ABAGNALE, JR.
ACT ONE
In the late 1960s at Miami International Airport, FBI Agent Carl Hanratty inally apprehends his
most elusive suspect. A single warning shot is enough to halt the infamous Frank Abagnale, Jr.
in his tracks, but appealing to his audience, the young con man has one last trick up his sleeve.
Frank transforms the airport into the glittering set of a television variety special, using his own
special brand of magic to tell his story LIVE IN LIVING COLOR.
Everything is swept away as Frank, Jr. explains his story—even Agent Hanratty is persuaded
to allow him his say, with the promise that at the end, Frank will tell him anything he wants
to know. As the host of his own T.V. spectacular, like “Hullaballoo”, or “The Dean Martin
Show”, Frank sets up the perfect version of his early suburban life in New Rochelle, N.Y. and
explains how his father’s inluence taught him that a uniform and appearance can make all
the difference: THE PINSTRIPES ARE ALL THAT THEY SEE.
When I.R.S. debts force his father to close the family store and move his family from their
home to an apartment, Frank, Jr. also soon learns of his mother’s inidelity. These revelations land the young man in family court without warning, when his parents decide
to separate. Unable to accept the situation and refusing to choose between his parents,
Frank runs away to New York City to live in SOMEONE ELSE’S SKIN. His surprising skill at
evasion and newfound knack for passing bad checks allow the 16 year-old to survive and
almost thrive.
It also attracts the eventual interest of the FBI. As Agent Hanratty puts the pieces together
and begins to draw a bead on the up-and-coming counterfeiter, fate brings a beautiful
bevy of airline stewardesses directly into Frank’s path. Deciding to move on from his life of
petty crime, he passes himself off as a Pan Am pilot, escaping into the excitement of the
JET SET. Infuriated by his inability to pin down the elusive mystery man, Hanratty explains
why he became an FBI Agent with his dogged determination to catch his target: DON’T
BREAK THE RULES. Meanwhile, Frank impresses his father, Frank, Sr. with his glamorous
new life as a pilot, encouraging him to win back his business and his wife, and rebuild the
family they have lost: BUTTER OUTTA CREAM.
As Frank, Jr. criss-crosses the globe, living the high life, Agent Hanratty and his men follow
his trail from motel to motel, trying to discover more about THE MAN INSIDE THE CLUES.
Finding an uninished letter that proves an important clue, the FBI agents follow Frank,
Jr. to Los Angeles, where Hanratty inally comes face-to-face with his man. However, once
more, Frank pulls a fast one, passing himself off as a Secret Service Agent and slipping right
out of Hanratty’s grasp. Humiliated, Hanratty and his men return to D.C., followed, this
time, by Frank, who telephones Hanratty from a phone booth on Christmas Eve: CHRISTMAS IS MY FAVORITE TIME OF YEAR. After catching a glimpse of Frank through the window
on the snowy street outside his ofice, Hanratty realizes for the irst time that this master
con-artist is just a kid.
ACT TWO
Feeling the hot breath of the FBI down his neck, Frank, Jr. escapes to Atlanta, where he
immediately falls in with the crowd of young, hard-partying doctors and nurses who
populate the apartment complex he now calls home. Characteristically, he pretends to
be a doctor, quickly inding innocuous work as the overnight E.R. supervisor at Atlanta
General Hospital: DOCTOR’S ORDERS. With the new identity of Dr. Frank Connors, he inally
encounters the girl who will change his life, the honest and innocent Brenda Strong, and
is instantly smitten.
In the meantime, Agent Hanratty has begun to tighten the noose, and inds Frank’s nowremarried mother, Paula: DON’T BE A STRANGER. Subsequently, Hanratty locates Frank’s father, Frank, Sr., in a local dive bar and prods him for information on his son’s whereabouts:
LITTLE BOY, BE A MAN. Learning that neither parent intends to help apprehend their son,
and deeply disturbed by their lack of parental responsibility, Hanratty begins to feel concern for the welfare of this brilliantly gifted, if obviously misdirected, young man.
Frank Jr., meanwhile, has fallen in love with Brenda, and intends to marry her and give up
his life as a doctor: SEVEN WONDERS. The pair travel to New Orleans to meet her parents,
narrowly missing Agent Hanratty and the FBI, who have now tracked Frank to Atlanta Gen-
eral. Enamored with the wholesome and stable Strong family, Frank convinces Brenda’s
father, a District Attorney, that he is not only a doctor, but a lawyer as well, and, in a rare
moment of honesty, persuades the Strongs of his true feelings for Brenda. They accept his
proposal to their daughter and welcome them into their happy household: (OUR) FAMILY
TREE. Frank settles into life as a lawyer working for his father-in-law to-be.
After phoning Agent Hanratty to tell him he’s ready to quit the game and end the chase,
Frank lets slip that he is now engaged to be married. Hanratty, who has been waiting for
Frank to make such a mistake, pursues the boy to his engagement party in New Orleans
but arrives a moment too late: Frank has confessed the truth to Brenda and led out a window. Hanratty begs Brenda to tell him where to ind her iancé, but she resolves to cover
his tracks so she can join him later in Miami, as he begged her to do: FLY, FLY AWAY.
A gunshot brings us back to to the moment we began at Miami International Airport,
as Hanratty sends the other agents away and tries to bring Frank in on his own. In one
last desperate attempt, the young trickster not only tries to escape, but virtually blows
away the entire conceit he’s so cleverly constructed, while learning from Hanratty of
Brenda’s unintended betrayal and the devastating news that his father, Frank Sr., has
died: GOODBYE.
Everyone has disappeared except for the intrepid Agent Hanratty, who refuses to give
up on the talented young man. Cornered and defeated, Frank agrees to turn himself
in, only to have Hanratty offer the support and the guidance he has been denied for so
long. The FBI Agent promises to help Frank secure an early release from prison with the
promise of a second career: helping Hanratty catch other counterfeiters and forgers
as a member of the FBI. Frank, Jr. acknowledges both the loss of his father and his unlikely newfound friendship as he accepts Hanratty’s offer of a new life: STUCK TOGETHER
(STRANGE BUT TRUE).

A SATURDAY NIGHT!”
BUT HE HAD THE STYLE TO
MAKE THINGS RIGHT
SO HE MADE BUTTER OUTTA
CREAM
HE KICKED HIS LEGS UP
HE TOSSED AND TURNED
SO NOT TO END UP A GHOST
HE DID THE HOKEY-POKEY
TILL THE CREAM WAS CHURNED
THEN BABY, HE WALKED RIGHT
OUT
AND BUTTERED HIS TOAST
NOW HE’S ON TOP FOR
GOODNESS SAKES
YEAH, HE’S THE BIG CHEESE UP
AT “LAND O’ LAKES”
HE’S LIVING PROOF THAT POP
ALL IT TAKES
NORBERT LEO BUTZ & COMPANY
SARA ANDREAS, TOM WOPAT & ANGIE SCHWORER
HE HELD HIS BREATH AND
SWAM TO THE TOP
HE BORROWED BEANS FROM
HIS MOM AND POP
AND OPENED UP HIS OWN
COFFEE SHOP OUT IN QUEENS!
WHEN HIS LIGHTS WERE
ALMOST OFF, HE
JUST MADE COFFEE OUTTA BEANS
SO THINK OF THOSE TWO WHEN
LIFE’S THE PITS
FRANK SR.
“THE BUG”
FRANK JR.
AND “THE MOUSE”
BOTH
AT THE END OF THEIR WITS
THEY KNEW THE KEY TO LIFE
IS THAT IT’S WHA’ CHA DREAM
SO IF LEMONS CLOG YOUR
SINK UP
DON’T JUST STAND AROUND
AND SCREAM
SPIKE SOME LEMONADE AND
DRINK UP
AND MAKE BUTTER OUT OF
CREAM
FRANK SR.
JUST MAKE BUTTER OUT OF
CREAM
FRANK JR.
MAKE SOME BUTTER OUT OF
CREAM
FRANK SR.
I HEAR WHAT YOU’RE SAYING SON

OUTTA CREAM

WHEN LOVE HAD FLOWN AWAY
CHILDREN CLOSE THEIR EYES
BUT STILL THEY SEE
I TOOK A CHANCE, A NEW

HIS FATHER HAD A HEAD FOR
DREAMS

NEEDLEPOINT
THAT HUNG ON THE WALLS
IT WOULDA SAID “LITTLE MAN,
