Why See Spongebob Squarepants?

Spongebob takes on Broadway

Don't miss this TWELVE-time Tony nominee on Broadway, must close September 16!

Following its well-received run in Chicago, the inhabitants of Bikini Bottom are live on Broadway! Co-conceived and directed by Steppenwolf Theatre's Tina Landau, an impressively starry roll call of musical artists have contributed to the score, including the late David Bowie, and The Flaming Lips and Cyndi Lauper! Join Spongebob, Patrick the Starfish and Squidward on a brand-new adventure for the stage, this psychedelic musical can not be missed!

Perfect for both adults and kids to enjoy, but be prepared to submerge yourself into the hallucinogenic world that is Bikini Bottom. Winner of a 2018 Tony Award for Scenic Design, this is Spongebob as you've never seen him before!

WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

The story follows Spongebob on a quest to save Bikini Bottom from complete and utter destruction from mysterious forces from the world above. When chaos erupts, their lives hang in the very balance - all until an unlikely hero rises to the challenge to save the day - with a little help of his friends.

THE SPONGEBOB PHENOMENON

First premiering on Nickelodeon in 2009, the adventures of Spongebob is something of a global cultural icon for cartoon lovers of all ages. A combination of slapstick silliness and surreal flights of fancy made it a big hit in countless countries where it was syndicated Now celebrating its ninth season, Spongebob and co have also made the leap to the silver screen in two movies that featured appearances from David Hasselhoff and Antonio Banderas.
