2675J - Summer Stage

The Merrimack Summer Stage Theater Program will be returning to the Wasserman Park Theater this summer.

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.

In this week long theater camp; participants will learn about scene acting, vocal work, dance and creative movement, theater games and improvisation. Participants will work together to produce a theatrical program that will be performed at the last day of the Theater Camp. When participants are not rehearsing, fun crafts and activities will be supervised by staff.

Don’t miss out on a fun-filled week of learning and performing. It will be amazing to observe the strides the participants make in just one week. Merrimack Summer Stage is for participants between the ages of 8 – 15 years old and the program runs Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm. Participants should bring a water bottle and lunch with them daily. Snacks will be provided.
