Who would have ever thought that an animated sponge would gain celebrity status? But that’s been the destiny of SpongeBob SquarePants, the name of the character and the uber-successful show he stars in—one of the most popular Nickelodeon shows ever. Now there’s even a musical that bears his name; and members of Roustabout Theater’s Apprentice Program are set to take it to the stage of the Luther Burbank Center in Santa Rosa. The SpongeBob Musical will be performed July 15–16 at 7:30 p.m. and July 17 at 3 p.m. Tickets are $18–$28 and may be purchased at lutherburbankcenter.org.
