TCR Outdoors at Brucemore: Disney and Pixar’s Finding Nemo

Dive into the big blue world with this family-friendly musical adventure!
Finding Nemo follows Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish who lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his son Nemo. When Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic odyssey across the ocean. With the help of lovable characters such as optimistic Dory, laid-back sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, Marlin and Nemo both overcome challenges on their journey to find each other and themselves.
Book by Lindsay Anderson. Music by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.
