Explore the Costumes of SpongeBob SquarePants

''SpongeBob'' costume designer David Zinn takes us backstage to zoom in on his masterpieces.
Since ''SpongeBob SquarePants'' came to town, Bikini Bottom has transformed the Palace Theatre into a Broadway wonderland of underwater creatures. Audiences owe much of that immersive experience to costume designer David Zinn, who took TheaterMania on a personal walking tour of all the looks he dreamed up for the show's oceanic creatures. You may have seen his costumes from afar, but you'll get a whole new appreciation for them when you view his handiwork up close.
