Patrick and Linda play a newly-married couple residing in the remote Catskill mountains. A police inspector is called to the house when she disappears. But when the wife suddenly turns up, her husband seems surprised - and this is only the beginning of a truly baffling train of events, in which nothing is what it seems and no-one is as they appear.

Patrick, who is best known for playing nice guy Bobby Ewing in the oil barons’ soap Dallas, is cast as the husband. He said: “It’s great fun playing both sides of the character – the villain and the hero – until the audience finds out which side is the real one. I’ve never done something like this in front of an audience in my life before.”

Linda, who played Fonzie’s girlfriend Ashley in Happy Days and Elizabeth Gaines in Homeland, takes on the role of the wife in Catch Me If You Can. She said of the storyline: “It’s full of twists of turns. It’s challenging for the audience and hopefully we’ll have them on the edge of their seats as well as laughing along the way. With all that we’ve lived through and are continuing to live through, it offers a delightful escape.”
