Cast Breakdown ALL roles are open to actors of ALL genders without exception. Ages high school & up – sorry, there are no roles for children in this production. We are looking for a diverse ensemble of 16-20 actors to play a large range of roles, including: SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS - optimistic, energetic, innocent, loyal, sometimes hyper-active; an extremely physical actor with excellent comedic timing PATRICK STAR – SpongeBob’s best friend; well-intentioned but lacking common sense; kind, but somewhat clueless; a big softie SANDY CHEEKS – a Texas squirrel who’s made to feel out of place under the sea; intelligent, buoyant, athletic; a brilliant scientist; karate or martial arts skills a plus EUGENE H. KRABS - a penny-saving, money-grabbing restaurateur; obsessed and volatile in relationship to money; tender but misguided in relationship with his daughter, Pearl SHELDON J. PLANKTON - a diminutive firecracker; slick, scheming, nefarious; determined; will do anything to get ahead in life; very greedy, but still open enough to learn life lessons SQUIDWARD Q. TENTACLES - grumpy, short-tempered, generally negative but lovable nonetheless; wants to be a star; tap dancing skills a plus KAREN THE COMPUTER – glamorous; a robotic housewife of Plankton; has been there for Plankton's every scheme and plot and has become jaded - been there, done that PEARL KRABS – Krabs’s bratty teenage daughter; a whale (literally); strong singer with a belt voice FOLEY ARTIST FISH – non-speaking role that will perform live and recorded sound effects on stage during the show (no need to attend auditions—please contact Lindsey to express interest) And also MAYOR OF BIKINI BOTTOM, PATCHY THE PIRATE, OLD MAN JENKINS, BUSTER BLUETANG, LARRY THE LOBSTER, the ELECTRIC SKATES, SARDINES, MRS. PUFF, PERCH PERKINS and lots more. This is an ensemble show where everyone will have lots to do! No need to do an exact imitation of the cartoon characters; speak and sing in your own voice, with a flavor or hint of that character. Perform with sincerity and honesty. The stakes are high for the residents of Bikini Bottom, and we care about them because they are believable and real! Celebrate what makes you unique and bring it to your audition. Be prepared to show off any special skills (dance, tumbling, martial arts, rap, weird human tricks, etc.) that you can do. Have FUN! We will be following Riverland guidance: masks must be worn at all times while on campus, and we will distance actors to keep auditions and rehearsals safe. We encourage you to get vaccinated. Can’t make it to auditions but want to be a part of the show? Have questions? Email me! Lindsey Williams, Director [email protected] .
