Finding Nemo The Musical
Finding Nemo - The Musical is a live action stage production that may just steal the title of "best in-park show at Walt Disney World" from Festival of the Lion King. Based on the characters from Disney/Pixar's animated feature Finding Nemo, the show is the first time that a Disney animated feature without songs has been brought to the stage as a musical. The music, lyrics and book for the show were written by Bobby Lopez (co-creator of Broadway's Tony Award-winning Avenue Q) and Kristen Anderson-Lopez (co-creator of the a cappella musical "Along the Way"), while the character puppets used in the show were designed by Michael Curry (creator of the puppets and masks used in Broadway's Tony Award-winning The Lion King). The musical features the song "Big Blue World", which was also added to the new The Seas with Nemo and Friends attraction in Epcot.
