Chris Kattan is going from television's "Saturday Night Live" to Lincoln Center's "The Frogs" in New York.

Kattan, a regular on the NBC late-night comedy series for seven years, will join Nathan Lane in "The Frogs," the Stephen Sondheim musical opening July 15 at the Vivian Beaumont Theater.

The musical, freely adapted from Aristophanes' comedy by Burt Shevelove, has been further rewritten by Lane, who will star as the Greek god Dionysius. The plot concerns a frog-infested journey by Dionysius, accompanied by his slave Xanthias (played by Kattan), to Hades. The twosome is in search of a famous writer who will help them save the world from destruction.
