An epic Spongebob SquarePants musical is in the works. The musical is set to debut during New York City's Broadway theater season for 2016-2017. According to Variety, Spongebob will do a preview of the show in Chicago during the summer of 2016, just before its New York debut.

The Nickelodeon produced musical will feature original songs by Steven Tyler, Aerosmith's Joe Perry, John Legend, Lady Antebellum, Cyndi Lauper and David Bowie. Cyndi Lauper is now a Broadway production veteran due to her success with the pop rock Broadway musical Kinky Boots.

How could THAT go wrong?

Admittedly Cyndi Lauper is a friend of Larry Kirwan and THAT should be OK....

I guess after 'Fallen to Earth' he was a some point forced to start writing songs for cartoon characters after running out of gold rings.

Speaking of Cyndi, I used her signature song to make this goofy thing at my corgi orgy. [Despite the name, no dogs are shown mating.] ;)

The gifs show characters from the anime Azumanga Daioh.

Fair warnings: The music takes a few seconds to start, and my goofy thing does tend to heat up the computer.

I was inspired by this AMV by Marck Deemon.
