With spectacular music and a diverse cast of underwater characters, the stakes are higher than ever in this dynamic stage musical, as SpongeBob and all of Bikini Bottom face the total annihilation of their undersea world. Chaos erupts. Lives hang in the balance. And just when all hope seems lost, a most unexpected hero rises up and takes center stage. The power of optimism really can save the world!
The Broadway musical was a Nominee for Twelve 2018 Tony Awards, including Best Musical winner and 2018 Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Musical!
All shows will be relaxed/sensory friendly, interpreted into American Sign Language and Open Captioned. Second weekend all shows will also be Audio Described.
