Disney Shares First Look At "Finding Nemo: The Big Blue... and Beyond"

Stepping inside the Theater in the Wild, we'll catch up with the group of fish from Dr. P. Sherman's office in “Finding Nemo,” who have made their way across the ocean to the Marine Life Institute. The fish tell Nemo's story in this fully updated, 25-minute show, incorporating live performers and puppets, along with many of the beloved songs and production numbers from the original “Finding Nemo: The Musical” – which is great news if you're like me and have had “In the Big Blue World” stuck in your head since 2007.

In addition to a new script, the show will feature new scenic set pieces and a new LED video wall designed to visually extend the world created by the physical sets on stage. We aren't talking small set pieces either. Be on the lookout for a 32-foot-long sunken submarine and a fish tank volcano standing nearly 15 feet tall!

Working in close collaboration with Pixar Animation Studios, artists and designers at Disney Live Entertainment also developed a new aesthetic for “Finding Nemo: The Big Blue… and Beyond!” inspired by layered, cut paper sculptures. The resulting look is fresh and unique to the show, while staying true to the designs in the original film. Check out the video below for a sneak peek.
