The story
Turtle Talk with Crush is an interactive talk show type attraction that has appeared at Disney theme parks. It first opened on November 16, 2004, at The Living Seas pavilion (later renamed The Seas Pavilion) at Epcot; it later opened at Disney California Adventure on July 15, 2005, and at Tokyo DisneySea on October 1, 2009. It also operated as a temporary attraction at Hong Kong Disneyland from May 24 to August 10, 2008. Designed by Walt Disney Imagineering in collaboration with Pixar, the attraction consists of an improvisational, real-time conversation with Crush, the green sea turtle from Pixar's 2003 film Finding Nemo. A similar show is featured in the Animator's Palate restaurant aboard Disney Cruise Line's Disney Dream and Disney Fantasy. In addition, another Turtle Talk with Crush show was established inside the Children's Hospital of Orange County in early 2013 to entertain child patients and their families, and operates twice daily.
