I think this is going to be an unbelievably underestimated part of broadway. People think of a “spongebob show” and think “eww, it’s going to be a bunch of dorks in mascot rubber costumes doing annoying voices” WELL NOPE! THAT’S NOT WHAT THIS IS PEOPLE!
Me before Spongebob the Musical starts: Wow this is such a dumb idea?? Wtf?? Me actually seeing clips of it: I'M SO SORRY BIKINI BOTTOM YALL ARE BEAUTIFUL

Plankton has always had swag, he was kind of the smart character in Bikini Bottom so was Squidward. Plankton never gave up, he is still finding ways to get the formula, it's been 11 seasons since he still hasn't got it yet.
Trueeeee. It was so distracting. I love his new outfit too. His old outfit was really frumpy and ugly looking, but now he looks classy as SpongeBob should;D
IlastarothTayre when I first heard of it I thought it was going to be ridiculous... but after watching this and doing research it actually seems like a good play.
Damn, even though I've grew up with spongebob, I still get excited when the intro plays (I'm 17). When I saw this, I thought this is gonna be cringy af, turns out to be a great play. 🤷♀️😂
Honestly this is a very weak season for new musicals so I could see this getting lots of nominations- Best Musical Best Actor in a Musical- Ethan Slater Best Featured Actor in a Musical- Gavin Lee (possible win) Best Original Score Best Costume Design (probable win) Best Scenic Design (probable win) Best Lighting Design (possible win) Best Direction of a Musical (possible win) Best Choreography Best Orchestrations (possible win)
John Harolds I actually agree with all of your choices there! I definitely think it's going to be a reeeeeally serious contender in the scenic and costume design categories!
I just saw this a few days ago on Broadway and it was legit one of the best shows I've seen. So underrated. The music was sooooo good and the performances were fantastic. Loved it. Everyone should legit go see this. It also has some GREAT throwbacks to some classic moments on the show.
THIS!! All of this. I legitimately enjoyed this more than Hamilton (and I looooooved Hamilton) because it's such a feel good show and the sets are beautiful and colorful. Squidward's number had me in tears laughing because it got more and more absurd every 3 seconds. I really hope Ethan gets the Tony because he was UNBELIEVABLE!!
how come people didnt freak the fuck out when charlie brown, shrek, or even fucking alexander hamilton became a musical yet once spongebob becomes one everyone has a shit fit
People: Wow Spongebob the musical is gonna be so bad and I know even though i didn't even listen to the Soundtrack or give it a chance Same people: *turns around* OMG HAMILTON IS SOOOO GOOD! Me: Bruh
I only watch Spongebob when my nephews and nieces were around and most of the time, I'm on my phone and am not paying attention. But this! This will probably get my full and undivided attention! Wow.
There's a sort of nostalgia factor to this show, way more than I thought it would be for me. I know it's Spongebob and everything, but there's something about the songs that feels both classic and nostalgic but also new and fresh! ....Is that just me?!
People can say what they want but this really looks amazing!! I hope the next time I go to New York I can stop by and see it the sets costumes and sings all look/ sound amazing
This was surprisingly one of the BEST shows I have seen on Broadway!! My entire family enjoyed it including my husband, 12 year old son and 9 year old daughter!!! The cast, songs, energy choreography & plot were clever, colorful, energetic and fun!!!! 🎉❤️🌞❤️😀
At first I thought this was a stupidest idea in theater history. I gave it a chance and after I saw it I realized I started an obsession. Will see it again if I can. One of the best shows for kids ever.
I saw this about a year ago for my 13th birthday, and it was a dream come true. Thank you Nickelodeon and this amazing cast for giving me the best birthday present ever
Ya know, Ethan slater really was just the best possible SpongeBob they could've possibly gotten. (Besides Tom Kenny, of course.) This is just perfect casting right here.
SQUIDWARD GETTING THE SHOWSTOPPING NUMBER HE DESERVES
em luvs evan hansen YES
who you calling pinhead?
He's not a loser! He don't not steal the show! \o/
I'm Not A Loser
ITS AMAZING LIVE, definitely the highlight of the show
My favourite part about this show is how everyone wants to hate it, but can't
Basic Kangaroo I can.
I can
Eh, everyone is entitled to their opinions.
I really want to hate it but I can't
The only thing I like about it is how cool Plankton looks
I think this is going to be an unbelievably underestimated part of broadway.
People think of a “spongebob show” and think “eww, it’s going to be a bunch of dorks in mascot rubber costumes doing annoying voices”
WELL NOPE! THAT’S NOT WHAT THIS IS PEOPLE!
Mirage_Theatre_Kid Like what people thought Lion King was going to be. 😂
TheDreweMaster True!!
And still after 6 months writing that, it still is an underrated show
You just gotta think.. Shrek the musical did good, why wouldn't this? It's very professionally done and I wish people would give it a chance..
seems it getting more recognition!!!:D
Me before Spongebob the Musical starts: Wow this is such a dumb idea?? Wtf??
Me actually seeing clips of it: I'M SO SORRY BIKINI BOTTOM YALL ARE BEAUTIFUL
Megan Hash SAMEEEEEA
Megan Hash ikr, I came to CRINGE not to ACTUALLY ENJOY IT
saME THOUGH

Ok me
Okay but Plankton has way too much swag, can we talk about this? 2 kool 4 skool m8
IlastarothTayre true
Plankton has always had swag, he was kind of the smart character in Bikini Bottom so was Squidward. Plankton never gave up, he is still finding ways to get the formula, it's been 11 seasons since he still hasn't got it yet.
IlastarothTayre first time I saw plankton I thought I stumbled across a new anime
I would have died if they got a short person to play plankton
And Mr. Krabs can low-key be my sugar daddy
This has no right to look this good
Erin Smith Still Great Tho
Oh, it's good. It's REAALLY FREAKING GOOD. My first text at intermission was "SHUT UP AND GIVE THIS ALL THE TONYS!!!"
IF THIS DOESN’T SWEEP THE TONYS I WILL PROTEST THE AMERICAN WEST THEATRE WING
If it sweeps the Tonys it will tie with The Producers as the most-awarded show on Broadway in history. XD
Squidward gets a big broadway tap number. We all needed this.
They fixed his hair!!!! It was honestly a mess in chicago
Trueeeee. It was so distracting. I love his new outfit too. His old outfit was really frumpy and ugly looking, but now he looks classy as SpongeBob should;D
Patrick’s hair was a little bit sideways in Chicago
kinda liked spongebob's hair dont know why xD
I am quickly becoming more obsessed with this than I expected. But hey, I'm a millenial. I grew up with Spongebob, It's a part of me.
IlastarothTayre when I first heard of it I thought it was going to be ridiculous... but after watching this and doing research it actually seems like a good play.
Damn, even though I've grew up with spongebob, I still get excited when the intro plays (I'm 17). When I saw this, I thought this is gonna be cringy af, turns out to be a great play. 🤷♀️😂
IlastarothTayre same
Same here!
Ik right.I have all the songs downloaded and keep watching the musical everyday.
Finally, Squidward’s name up in Lights! He finally made it to the big time! Haha. But seriously, this looks amazing!!!!
There are clips from opening night of his voice actor reacting to it as cartoon Squidward !
ua-cam.com/video/oLcjICWi_BY/v-deo.html&t=73 :*
It's all his imagination!
It was!!!
Why is plankton cooler than me?!?!?
Megan Payne
Because his coolness beats everyone on here, but is underrated on Spongebob (the show, not this musical)
Cuz he's plankton
You're here checking out Arianna's new boyfriend!
Yes I am. 😂
Absolutely
Yep.
Lmao can't wait for theater snobs to pitch a fit when this gets like 5 Tony's
skyhoemish It's a fun show, and will probably get quite a few noms, but it probably won't win any major awards.
Honestly this is a very weak season for new musicals so I could see this getting lots of nominations-
Best Musical
Best Actor in a Musical- Ethan Slater
Best Featured Actor in a Musical- Gavin Lee (possible win)
Best Original Score
Best Costume Design (probable win)
Best Scenic Design (probable win)
Best Lighting Design (possible win)
Best Direction of a Musical (possible win)
Best Choreography
Best Orchestrations (possible win)
John Harolds I actually agree with all of your choices there! I definitely think it's going to be a reeeeeally serious contender in the scenic and costume design categories!
John Harolds I think Ethan Slater and the score for this show might win too
I think Ethan is a serious contender. He was incredible.
this yo man ari?
I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO LIKE THIS
Mary Carter I KNOW RIGHT
But you do
cookie cream ice cream :D we're but supposed to but we do calm yourself 😂
I was freaking dead set against this. Now I may actually have to see it.
Bogmire42 I was excited then watched this and decided nah
same
Same idk how I feel
I just saw this a few days ago on Broadway and it was legit one of the best shows I've seen. So underrated. The music was sooooo good and the performances were fantastic. Loved it. Everyone should legit go see this. It also has some GREAT throwbacks to some classic moments on the show.

That sassy krabby patty at 0:48 always gets me 😂
Sandra Gonzalez I know its Jon Rua I couldn't be more proud of my son
Gotta love Jon Rua
Because it’s the beautiful ✨Jon Rua ✨
WAIT I KNEW JON RUA WAS IN THIS BUT I DIDN’T KNOW HE WAS THE SASSY KRABBY PATTY
@@itsthemaggieshowI love Broadway 😅😅😅
Why is Plankton lowkey Loki from Marvel
I KNEW HE REMINDED ME OF SOMEONE
"Low-key Loki"
Try saying that 5 times fast
WHY IS PLANKTON ATTRACTIVE?! He's got a Loki vibe going on 😭😭
Ashley N
I have always been attracted to Loki, now I am attracted to two people...
People like you disgust me
MiningShark why because you want plankton to yourself? It's ok, there's enough of him to go around:)
@@therealspongebob469 Alright, then I guess we've got no problem
MiningShark perfect!
I love how Plankton and Mr. Krabs look, freaking amazing
Arianna saw this and went 👁️👄👁️
I love that Frankie Grande is doing Broadway!
Spongebob should go on tour next year after the Tony Awards
Michaela H-C YES
It's currently on tour all over North America! Look it up on their website!
@@carlottarobbins7005 *[sad South American noises]*
@@laah4968 the tour's cancelled now, anyway, due to COVID-19
Ariana broke up two marriages for this creature
spongebob's new costume is 10/10
i love electric yellow haired bob as much as the next girl, but strawberry bob is my favorite
how come people didnt freak the fuck out when charlie brown, shrek, or even fucking alexander hamilton became a musical yet once spongebob becomes one everyone has a shit fit
honestly if shrek can have a musical, why tf spongebob cant have one immarite??
To be fair, everyone thought Hamilton would be ridiculous as well, and look how wrong they were.
and it's funny cause most of those thinking spongebob was a bad idea are hamilton fans like,,
People: Wow Spongebob the musical is gonna be so bad and I know even though i didn't even listen to the Soundtrack or give it a chance
Same people: *turns around* OMG HAMILTON IS SOOOO GOOD!
Me: Bruh
like lmao they can enjoy their fucking slaveowner musical
I really want to hate this musical but I just can't. I have never seen anything so original and triumphant in my lifetime.
IM SEEING IT THIS MONTH IM NOT READY

Ethan Slater was robbed. He deserved the award so much. He should’ve won. HE WAS MANAGEMENT MATERIAL!!!!!
I'm almost 30 years old is it wrong I find this so charming?? lol may have to go see!
i don't think so, its like the lion king Live. :D
Lol, Fresh Powder, didn't realise you here XD, Great Doctor Who Reaction BTW!
I only watch Spongebob when my nephews and nieces were around and most of the time, I'm on my phone and am not paying attention. But this! This will probably get my full and undivided attention! Wow.
This show its sooo underrated, really
2 months before the show opened: This seriously they make anything a musical now
Now: SO COME ON HOOOOOO HERO IS MY MIDDLE NAME
FIXING TROUBLE IS OUR GAME
Most colorfull broadway show ever
0:31 Was that Plankton? So charming lol.
0:31 SLAY KAREN SLAYYY
PLANKTON LOOKS BADASS
HAPPY OPENING TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL, MOST WONDERFUL, MOST JOYFUL SHOW!!!
SEEING IT NEXT SATURDAY
There's a sort of nostalgia factor to this show, way more than I thought it would be for me.
I know it's Spongebob and everything, but there's something about the songs that feels both classic and nostalgic but also new and fresh! ....Is that just me?!
Ok but I just realized that Jon Rua was the big krabby patty and I am living
Do you yield?
Happy opening, I didn’t know I was gonna actually kinda like it. Break a leg!
A A Apple MY LEG!
Oh my God that was so clever
HAPPY OPENING!!! I LOVE EVERYONE IN THE CAST
They are all so good! They really make everyone on Spongebob come to life! And Ethan Slater is the perfect Spongebob. He’s really cute and nice lol.
I had the pleasure of seeing this live. It blew my expectations off the roof. Absolutely fantastic musical! Oddly catchy, too.
I feel stupid for not watching the full show professionally recorded when it was uploaded 🤦♀️
Totally would recommend this show.Saw it yesterday and I was amazed! Don’t underestimate it, the props are simply beautiful!
Jon Rua as a krabby patty.....I got no words
LC619 I FRICKING LOVE JON RUA
“I’m a Krabby Patty, WEEEEEE”
People can say what they want but this really looks amazing!! I hope the next time I go to New York I can stop by and see it the sets costumes and sings all look/ sound amazing
THE COSTUME, SET, AND LIGHTING CREWS HAVE ME SHOOK TO MY FUCKING CORE
I will be super happy if this musical can go on DVD
I shouldn't be excited for this but I am...
every single character in this is my favorite
I WANNA SEE IT SO BAD! HAPPY OPENING!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!
This was surprisingly one of the BEST shows I have seen on Broadway!! My entire family enjoyed it including my husband, 12 year old son and 9 year old daughter!!! The cast, songs, energy choreography & plot were clever, colorful, energetic and fun!!!! 🎉❤️🌞❤️😀
Well... this aged weird.
I’m 47 and can’t wait to see this show! What’s wrong with me?
are you done
I’m not a loser!
I'm still very bitter about the fact that this amazing production CLOSED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
JON RUA IS MY BABY OMFG
At first I thought this was a stupidest idea in theater history. I gave it a chance and after I saw it I realized I started an obsession. Will see it again if I can. One of the best shows for kids ever.
who was originally here because Brendon Fuckin Urie wrote a song for them but is now super hyped for the actual musical
Sassy Gee For President Please. Im begging you. Lowkey me 😶
Brendon urie is overrated
And David Bowie that score alone should get a Tony cause of all the effort put into it
FINALLY! LITERALLY LOOKS AMAZING
I saw this it was awesome. Simple sponge was my favorite song and this show introduced me to my celebrity crush, Ethan Slater!
I'm ready! I'M ready!! I'M READY!!! (For this beautiful masterpiece;)
I saw this about a year ago for my 13th birthday, and it was a dream come true. Thank you Nickelodeon and this amazing cast for giving me the best birthday present ever
This musical is not a simple musical.
I WANNA SEE IT SO BAD! HAPY OPENING!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!
Ya know, Ethan slater really was just the best possible SpongeBob they could've possibly gotten. (Besides Tom Kenny, of course.) This is just perfect casting right here.
Arigato Grande husband?
IF THIS DOESN'T WIN ALL THE AESTHETIC RELATED TONYS THEN I'M SUING THE AMERICAN THEATRE WING
I wish I could see this but I don’t live in New York
Ilona Ormson I feel you, I love this musical, but live all the way in CALIFORNIA 😭
Ilona Ormson I wish I could see this but I live in Spain. So I feel ya
Ilona Ormson I live in AUSTRALIA MATE
i don't live in the US lol
I LIVE IN INDONESIA :"))
Y’all this entire Broadway season is a fuckin party and Spongebob is the one who brings the decorations and music
Rip an absolutely fantastic show. It’s a shame I never got to go see it.
Ah not to worry The SpongeBob SquarePants Musical will be shown on TV on Nickelodeon this December
This makes me miss spongebob on broadway even more😭✨
Nicklodeon should airs this on tv or their channel so everyone can see it at home
bingo bango Or make an animated adaptation of it. THAT would be a fun challenge for them to pull off. XD
They have!
The harmonies in Hero Is My Middle Name tho
i wanna seee this musical sooo bad , i absolutely love soundtrack 😱😱🙈🙈
This is one of my favorite musicals ❤️
Even tho this show got one Tony it at least won something
this show filled me with so, so much joy. nothing but LOVE.
i miss this
I feel bad for judging the title, this looks amazing!
Man I hope this succeeds like crazy when it goes on tour especially since this is the perfect tribute show for Stephen hillenberg
2 People have no Childhood Respect for Spongebob
I am obsessed with this right now. I love this musical. It is to pure for this world
I am not, a simple spoooooOOOOOOOOONNNNGEEEE
Yassss I went to see this. Best Broadway dhow
