8. Finding Nemo—The Musical
We’ve included this spectacular musical in the list of attractions at Animal Kingdom because it’s just too good to miss! It was inspired by Disney/PIXAR’s Finding Nemoand recounts the story of the lost clownfish and his father’s search for him. Elaborate puppetry and puppeteer camouflage work together to give the characters in the story the appearance of floating underwater. And some of the puppets are massive! Crush the sea turtle is the size of a Volkswagen Beetle, and Nigel the pelican stands 22 feet tall! FastPass+ service is available for this musical and it can be helpful in getting a better seat for the production, but not having one won’t keep you from seeing it—and it is fascinating!
