  • Finding Nemo-The Musical Officially Opened in the Recently Enclosed and Air-Conditioned 1,500-Seat Theater in the Wild, Located in Disney World's Animal Kingdom
    Powered by SAVE THIS | EMAIL THIS | Close TAKING THE PLUNGE Feb 1, 2007 12:00 PM, By Ellen Lampert-Gréaux It stands to reason that the popular 2003 Disney-Pixar animated film Finding Nemo would find its way into the Disney theme parks. First came EPCOT's The Seas With Nemo and Friends, a ride-through attraction — with guests on clam-mobiles — at Disney World in Orlando. In January 2007, Finding Nemo-The Musical officially opened in the recently enclosed and air-conditioned 1,500-seat Theater In the Wild, located in Disney World's Animal Kingdom. This production represents the first time that Disney has created a stage musical from a non-musical film. Finding Nemo-The Musical also raises the benchmark for this type of theme park attraction, something that has been anticipated since Anne Hamburger — formerly the producer of En Garde Arts in New York — became executive vice president of Disney Creative Entertainment. She has brought with her top-notch theatrical talent such as Peter Brosius, artistic director of The Children's Theatre Company of Minneapolis, who directed this stage version of Finding Nemo, which features original songs by Tony Award-winning Avenue Q co-composer/creator Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, co-creator of the a cappella musical Along the Way. The 30-minute musical follows the plot of the film and features Marlin, an overprotective father fish who has to venture through the dangers of the deep to rescue his curious son, Nemo, who is held captive in a fish tank in a dentist's office.
