Is Catch Me If You Can Good for Kids?
Although Catch Me If You Can is not a classic “family show,” there is nothing objectionable in the script and songs, and the musical’s peppy vibe will appeal to school-age kids. The lead character participates in some morally objectionable acts including fraud and forgery. The show contains some sexual situations.
