Disney On Ice tickets on sale Friday

Special to The Times-Tribune

Dive down under and experience an adventure with curious clownfish Nemo, his overprotective father Marlin, and their relentlessly optimistic pal Dory. Produced by Feld Entertainment, “Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo” will take audiences to great depths on a comical escapade to reunite father and son.

This production visits Corbin from Thursday, Jan. 28 to Sunday, Jan. 31, for six performances at The Arena. Tickets go on sale Friday, Nov. 13.

The Great Barrier Reef comes to life as Marlin — with the help of absent-minded yet lovable Dory — searches high and low for Nemo in the big blue. Along the way, the improbable duo run into a trio of vegetarian sharks, a forest of jellyfish, and Crush and Squirt, the sea turtles who take Marlin and Dory through the powerful East Australian Current. Meanwhile, back in the dentist’s aquarium, Nemo and the eclectic Tank Gang plot a daring escape in an effort to send Nemo home.

“Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo” features an international team of award-winning figure skaters, artistic choreography and a breathtaking aquatic backdrop. Innovative costume design and a palette of vibrant colors will make each audience member feel as if they have been submerged deep into Nemo’s underwater world.

Tickets for “Disney On Ice presents Disney/Pixar’s Finding Nemo” are available by phone at 1-800-745-3000 or at The Arena box office. To learn more about Disney On Ice, visit www.disneyonice.com.
