Show synopsis
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.

Participation Fee
The fee is £300 per participant.
If a family has more than one sibling participating in the project, each additional sibling will be charged £250.
The participation fee does not include meals or transportation, which remain the responsibility of parents/guardians. We endeavour to keep project participation fees as low as possible but unfortunately we have to cover costs for venue hire, pastoral care and tuition fees during the project period.
Payment Schedule
There are two payment schedule options:
Option 1 - Full payment of the participation fee to be made in late May 2025 on the
applicant accepting a part in Finding Nemo Jr.
Option 2 - £150 to be paid in late May 2025 on the applicant accepting a part in Finding Nemo Jr - the remaining balance of £150 to be paid by Friday 27th June 2025.
The participation fee must be paid by Friday 27th June 2025. Failure to pay by this deadline will result in the participant being excluded from the project. Should the participant decide to withdraw from the project, the participation fee is non-refundable.
The participation fee is per project and will be eligible for the Gift Aid scheme as we are a registered charity. This means that for every £1 paid to us, we will be able to secure 25p to support Cambridge Theatre Company. If you participate in the project we will forward you a Gift Aid declaration, which we very much hope you will complete.
Bursary Fund
There are a limited number of bursary places on offer for those who genuinely cannot afford the fees. Please contact Gareth Mullan at [email protected] for a subsidised place application form. You may be asked to supply proof of household
earnings.
