Explore the “big blue world” with this lively new stage musical based on the beloved film series. Join Asheville Junior Theater as the first theater company in Asheville, and one of the first nationwide, to perform this heartwarming musical!
Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. is a 60-minute musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by award-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez.
Marlin, an anxious and over-protective clownfish, lives in the Great Barrier Reef with his kid Nemo, who longs to explore the world beyond their anemone home. But when Nemo is captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin faces his fears and sets off on an epic adventure 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.
Featuring memorable songs such as “Just Keep Swimming,” “Fish Are Friends Not Food,” and “Go With the Flow,” Finding Nemo JR. brings a vibrant underwater world to life on stage in a story full of family, friendship, and adventure.
Join us on an adventure as Marlin and Dory search for Nemo across the ocean after Nemo was abducted by a scuba diver! Bright costumes and set designs, fun songs and dancing, this show is great for all ages! Enjoy the magic of live theater with this heartwarming tale about a father who would do anything to find his son, even if it means he must face some hungry sharks! This is the first time Disney has released this show nationwide to be seen outside of the Magic Kingdom. Hurry before tickets sell out. The last show AJT performed was sold out a week before opening night!
The Perspective Café is kicking off 2023 with a classic bang! Grab your friends and join us each Sunday from 2pm to 5pm in the Perspective Café to play an assortment of board and card games. You can even bring your own favorite games from home to share with new friends.
