Get Ready For:
- Singing and dancing animals and pirates.
- Bright and shiny costumes that you won't believe.
- Lots of underwater characters - how many creatures do you think you can spot?
- The town of Bikini Bottom is close to an underwater volcano and after it starts to tremble, the town panics! Some characters take this as an opportunity to trick their fellow Bikini Bottom residents for their own gain, while others feel empowered to help how they can. We will see some of our favorite characters at their worst. Moments like this are a great way to spark conversations with your young people about ways that a community can work together in positive ways and what lessons you think the characters learned.
Sensory Moments:
- There are a few audience-interactive moments in this show! There is a moment of direct audience interaction with Patchy the Pirate during intermission and performers are in the aisles frequently throughout the show. If you need to leave during the show for any reason, please be mindful of this and be extra aware of people around you as you exit through the aisles.
- Fog is used throughout this performance.
- During several songs actors use bubble guns to bring bubbles around the audience and on stage. Bubble Machnes are also placed above the audience that will also produce bubbles.
- After the song “No Control,” two loud weather alert sounds are played, one at a higher pitch.
- At the end of the show, non-latex balloons are dropped onto the audience from above. These are not intentionally popped but there is a possibility that one could.
- This show is a little longer than our usual performances at around 2 hours and 30 minutes long with two acts and a 15-minute intermission. If a little one gets restless, you are welcome to hang out with our staff in the lobby if needed!
