Finding Nemo KIDS

The cast of *Finding Nemo KIDS* 2025 (Greg Lazerwitz)

Caroline made her St. Louis directing debut with Finding Nemo KIDS at the St. Louis Jewish Community Center with their Youth Theatre department. She worked with 40 kids from August to November 2025 in a new program with the J geared towards students aged 5-8.

Caroline also acted as choreographer, music director, costume designer, and lighting designer. The show was also produced alongside the Youth’s Jr show Alice in Wonderland for students aged 8-15.

Artistic Director Robyn Hartley writes that “Through the vehicle of musical theatre, young students broaden their understanding of how to follow directions, listen well, wait their turn, engage their imagination, channel their energy and step into the spotlight.” Caroline has stated that the goal of the program is to “help young artists learn every day skills through the magic of theatre: teamwork, cooperation, and confidence.”
