I thought this musical was really good. The actors were so good, I could easily see them as the actual characters. I really liked Plankton and Karen's portrayal as a scheming couple, and Squidward's solo. The songs were really good too, I even liked Patchy's pirate song as well. Though I could've done without the parts with the Sardines forming a Patrick cult. It kinda seemed pointless. But the parts on the volcano was pretty exciting. I hope I can one day see the show live.
