The Coterie Theatre returns to indoor performances on its mainstage with the world premiere of a new version of The SpongeBob Musical never before seen. Adapted from the beloved animated series, The SpongeBob Musical for Young Audiences is a brand new, high-energy version of the Broadway hit featuring a fun, pop-infused musical score written by some of the biggest names in Top 40 music.
Adapted from the critically acclaimed and award-winning Broadway production, The SpongeBob Musical for Young Audiences turns one of the world’s most beloved and unforgettable characters loose on stage in the undersea town of Bikini Bottom, inhabited by an ever-optimistic yellow sea sponge named SpongeBob SquarePants and his equally quirky circle of friends and neighbors, including Patrick Star, Sandy Cheeks, Squidward Q. Tentacles, Mr. Krabs, and Plankton. Their pleasant existence is interrupted when it is discovered that Mt. Humongous will erupt within the next 48 hours and obliterate Bikini Bottom. Chaos erupts but just when all hope seems lost, an unexpected hero takes center stage and SpongeBob powerfully proves to one and all that optimism really can save the world by showing everyone that he is not “just a simple sponge.”
The Coterie, now in its 42nd Season and named “One of the Five Best Theaters for Young Audiences in the U.S.” by TIME magazine, will perform the world premiere of The SpongeBob Musical for Young Audiences November 4, 2021-January 2, 2022, in The Coterie Theatre, located on level one of the Crown Center Shops in Kansas City, MO.
