The SpongeBob Musical: Songwriting Celebs and their SpongeBob Twins

Really the only surprising thing about The SpongeBob Musical is just how damn long it took to create The SpongeBob Musical. The loveable nose-flute playing sponge first premiered on Nickelodeon in 1999 - now, 17 years later, a musical bearing his name is set to premiere in Chicago in 2016, with songwriting from the likes of Aerosmith's Steven Tyler and Joe Perry, David Bowie, Cyndi Lauper, John Legend and They Might Be Giants. Here's a look at how those rockers might match up in the world of the Sponge.

Buds. Collaborators. Absurdists. Make a little birdhouse in your sponge. What?
