''John Tartaglia's ImaginOcean'' is an Off Broadway musical about fish. It was written by and stars John Tartaglia, whose previous theatre acting credits include ''Avenue Q'' and ''Beauty and the Beast''. The show played at New World Stages, which is also where the show that launched his career, ''Avenue Q'', played. The book is by Tartaglia, and the musical score is by William Wade. Like ''Avenue Q'', ''ImaginOcean'' utilizes puppetry, but unlike that show, ''ImaginOcean'' is aimed at children and the actors performing the puppets are not seen onstage. The idea for ''ImaginOcean'' came about when show creator John Tartaglia took a snorkeling trip in the Virgin Islands. The show was originally performed on the Royal Caribbean ship ''Oasis of the Seas'' before moving to New World Stages. According to a ''Newsday'' interview, two foreign productions, a national tour, and a film adaptation of the show were planned. The show utilizes blacklight sets and lighting as well as puppets with fabrics that work well with blacklight, giving the illusion that the puppets are floating against the black background. As such, the show is marketed as the first "glow-in-the-dark" musical. ==Characters== *Dorsel - A green show fish who is afraid of germs and trying new things. *Tank - An orange anglerfish who is one of Dorsel's best friends *Bubbles - A rainbow fish who is one of Dorsel's best friends *Leonard - A magenta and purple octopus who Dorsel meets after he gets separated from Tank and Bubbles. *Ripple - A seahorse who serves as the protector of Seaweed Scuttle. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Tartaglia's ImaginOcean」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
