The 2023 MME Sixth Grade Musical, Finding Nemo Jr., is playing at Minnetonka Middle School East beginning Thursday, November 16 through Saturday, November 18.

About the musical Finding Nemo JR.:
Explore the big blue world with this lively 60-minute musical adaptation based on the beloved 2003 Pixar movie, Finding Nemo.

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 addition to the 39 talented 6^th grade actors, over 40 MME 6^th, 7^th and 8^th grade students participate in this production as sound and lights, set design and stage crews.
