Auditions for Disney’s Finding Nemo JR.
The Un-Common Theatre Company is thrilled to announce auditions for our Spring Young Performers Production of Disney’s Finding Nemo JR.
Finding Nemo JR. is a musical adaptation of the beloved 2003 Pixar movie Finding Nemo, with new music by award-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez. 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.
Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. is based on the 2003 Disney/Pixar film Finding Nemo written by Andrew Stanton, Bob Peterson, David Reynolds and directed by Andrew Stanton. The Finding Nemo JR. book, music, and lyrics are by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, book adapted by Lindsay Anderson, and music and orchestrations adapted and arranged by Myrna Conn.

For all roles, please prepare 16-32 bars (30-60 seconds) of a song in the style of Disney’s Finding Nemo JR. or other Disney shows. Please bring sheet music in the key in which you are singing for our accompanist. Please, no a cappella or backing tracks.
Rehearsals are scheduled on Sunday afternoons from 1:00-4:00 pm and Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:30-8:30 pm in Foxboro and Mansfield. Not all cast members will be required to be at all rehearsals. A rehearsal schedule will be made once the show is cast. Extra nights may be added as the show nears production week. All conflicts must be listed on the audition form and will be taken into account during casting.
The production will take place May 2-4, 2025.
Production Fee: $300 per cast member. This will be due at the first rehearsal. The production fees include a show t-shirt, professional pictures for downloading, and entrance for the cast member to the opening night party and the Sunday cast party.
Like most everything in the past few years, our expenses have gone up, as such, so have our cast fees. However, we at Un-Common believe that theatre should always be accessible. As such, we do provide scholarships. If this is the one thing keeping your child from participating, please just reach out to the show producers, no questions asked.
