Missoula Children’s Theatre will present Nickelodeon The SpongeBob Musical: Youth Edition August 8–9, 2025, performed by campers from MCT’s Performing Arts Camp (PAC) at Flathead Lake. Directed by Christine Kowalchik, with music direction by Arielle Nachtigal and choreography by Annika Charlson, this G-rated musical brings the beloved underwater world of SpongeBob SquarePants to life on the MCT stage.
The cast features 100 teenage performers from 48 cities across the United States, Canada, and Italy. Following a week of rehearsals, music, swimming, and more rehearsals, the campers will return to Missoula to perform this spirited, family-friendly production featuring songs by Sara Bareilles, John Legend, Steven Tyler & Joe Perry of Aerosmith, and others. The musical celebrates friendship, optimism, and the power of teamwork as SpongeBob and friends rally to save their undersea home from disaster.
