At Tahoe Summer Camps, Finding Nemo Kids will feature costumes, props and set pieces that will bring this play’s Great Barrier Reef characters to life. The production follows the story of Marlin, a cautious clownfish, and his adventurous son Nemo. When Nemo is unexpectedly captured and taken to Sydney, Marlin embarks on an unforgettable journey to rescue him. Marlin encounters a variety of characters, including the ever-optimistic Dory, the laid-back Crush, and the supportive Tank Gang.
