A highlight of the October school holidays will be when award-winning Adelaide Youth Theatre (AYT) brings to its stage the South Australian premiere of Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. With over 75% of tickets already snapped up, the upcoming musical is shaping up to be one of the most sought-after shows this season.
Finding Nemo JR. is a vibrant 60-minute musical adaptation of Pixar’s beloved 2003 animated feature, Finding Nemo. With fresh and captivating music from the famed songwriting duo, Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, this production promises to be a musical extravaganza for all ages. Follow the heartwarming journey of Marlin, the anxious clownfish, as he traverses the vast ocean in search of his adventurous young son, Nemo. Joined by an ensemble of memorable characters like the ever-optimistic Dory, the cool sea turtle Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang, this tale is a deep dive into themes of family, friendship, and self-discovery.
Hitting notes of nostalgia, audiences can expect to be serenaded with unforgettable tunes such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and the rhythmic “Go With the Flow.” Indeed, Finding Nemo JR. aims to recreate the magic of the underwater world right here at the Arts Theatre from October 11-14.
