Disney and Pixar’s Finding Nemo: A 60-Minute Family Musical brings the beloved Pixar film to life on stage in a vibrant, song-filled adventure for the whole family.

When young Nemo gets lost in the big blue sea, his father Marlin sets out on an epic rescue mission. Follow Marlin and his hilariously forgetful sidekick, Dory, as they ride with current-surfing sea turtles, outsmart goofy sharks, and navigate jellyfish-filled waters on their journey to bring Nemo home.

Featuring a memorable score by award-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez (Frozen, Coco), this heartwarming musical is packed with colourful puppets, big adventures and plenty of laughs. Dive in for a splashy theatrical adventure about courage, friendship and learning to let go!
