IN A WORLD WHERE TRUTH HAS BECOME A STRANGER, NEMO ADVOCATES FOR GENUINE LOVE, COMPASSION, AND FREEDOM, CHALLENGING THE PREVAILING FORCES OF FEAR, AMBITION, AND GREED.
ACCOMPANYING NEMO ON THE PIANO IS THE EXCEPTIONALLY TALENTED AND KIND-HEARTED MUSICIAN, CONOR MCNALLY. WITH A GENUINE PASSION FOR MUSIC, CONNOR IS POISED TO SET THE PERFECT TONE, CREATING A HARMONIOUS BACKDROP FOR NEMO’S PROFOUND WORDS.
