Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo
Brings Nemo’s Underwater World to Life
UK audiences will for the first time be able to submerge themselves with one of Disney/Pixar’s favourite and lovable characters, Nemo, the clownfish. The
innovative new production of Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo plunges audiences into the amazing underwater world of “lucky”-finned clownfish Nemo, his overprotective father Marlin and cheerfully optimistic Dory.
Follow alongside Marlin and Dory on a daring search of the “Big Blue” to find curious clownfish Nemo, Marlin’s son. Ride the current with "super-dude" turtle Crush and make waves with Nemo's new friends - the Tank Gang - as they plot an escape from the dentist's aquarium in this “whale of a tale” full of laughter and fun!
This animated world of the “Big Blue” comes to life in a brilliant rainbow of colour, set to an energetic musical score. Gliding smoothly across the ice, skaters costumed in many forms of ocean life perfectly emulate the natural flow of fish through water. A digital projection screen streams aquatic lighting 
to create the depth and vastness of the ocean that envelops the audience.
“In this show, we create a living sea on the ice in such a way that audiences will feel as if they are actually underwater,” says producer Kenneth Feld. “We combine digital projection, choreography and the most unbelievable costumes ever seen, and the result is a visual masterpiece that will truly transform the ice surface and take audiences through the ocean and into the aquarium.”
The adventure begins when the arena transforms into an aquatic paradise - complete with brightly coloured coral reefs and fish of all sizes swimming 
along. To help convey the extraordinary size of the ocean, Disney created a life-size blue whale, 43 feet in length, which takes up nearly half the ice. When Marlin and Dory encounter the whale, the audience gets a sense of the vast warm waters, home to creatures both large and small. Not only are the props vast but the choreography precise. Choreographer Cindy Stuart leveraged the creative costumes, designed by Scott Lane, to develop a broad range of movement for the show - from a precision skating school of moonfish to break dancing sea turtles to balletic jellyfish aerial silk act, a first in Disney On Ice history.
With the captivating combination of digital projection and lighting, set, costumes and choreography, audiences will be visually submersed under the water to become a part of the aquatic adventure in this dynamic debut. As father and son go on a comical escapade to reunite, the Academy Award®-winning film takes to the ice in a breathtaking three-dimensional display of colour, laughter and ocean-sized fun.
