DETAILS

ÜBER DAS STÜCK

In diesem dynamischen Musical steht für die Bewohner von Bikini Bottom mehr denn als je zuvor auf dem Spiel, denn SpongeBob und die anderen Bewohner der Unterwasserwelt sehen der totalen Zerstörung ihrer Heimat ins Auge.

Das Chaos bricht aus, es geht um Leben und Tod. Leben hängen in der Schwebe. Und gerade, als alle Hoffnung verloren scheint, betritt ein höchst unerwarteter Held die Bühne. Die Kraft des Optimismus kann die Welt tatsächlich retten!

Das SPONGEBOB MUSICAL basiert auf der beliebten Zeichentrickserie von Stephen Hillenburg mit einem Buch von Kyle Jarrow und Original-Songs von Yolanda Adams, Steven Tyler und Joe Perry (Aerosmith), Sara Bareilles, Jonathan Coulton, Alexander Ebert (Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros), The Flaming Lips, Lady Antebellum, Cyndi Lauper, John Legend, Panic! At the Disco, Plain White T's, They Might Be Giants und T.I. und Lieder von David Bowie, Tom Kenny und Andy Paley.

Weitere Texte stammen von Jonathan Coulton, mit zusätzlicher Musik von Tom Kitt. Die musikalische Produktion wurde von Tina Landau konzipiert.

The Conductor (who hands off and receives a whole slew of props)
The Foley Artist Fish is a staged role that produces all sound effects specified in the script and score using percussion instruments, triggered digital effects, and other creative sound makers. As envisioned by Tina Landau, “The show is meant to be performed with a FOLEY ARTIST FISH playing sound effects live, and within view of the audience, to accompany the stage action. This could include footsteps for SpongeBob and Squidward (as in the Broadway Production), dings for objects appearing, whacks for hits, and so on.” In the Broadway production, the FOLEY ARTIST FISH played the PERCUSSION book and also performed many additional sound effects not specified in the PERCUSSION book. Licensees are encouraged to create their own foley score that suits their staging, talent, and resources. Please visit the ORCHESTRATION section for additional information on this role.

The intention of the pre-show music, however each production addresses it, is to enhance the playful, tropical environment into which the audience should enter. Be creative, have fun, and welcome your audience into the party.
