Watch stage stalwart Gavin Lee get into character (and extra legs!) as Squidward Q. Tentacles in the new musical SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS.

I love all the the fact that he kept all the fanart of himself as squidward that fans have given him.

[Servo]

Nailing both an American accent AND squidward's voice is pretty damn impressive alone.

[jjju]

My favorite part of this video is That he has to draw on deeper wrinkles for his character lmao

[jchamp_]

“If spongebob was still here in 5 years” oh I wish

[lauravturner]

WAIT. HE IS HOW OLD? 46?! WHAT. REALLY????

I honestly would have guessed he was at least a decade younger than that. Now I am even more impressed by that extensive dance number.

My family always jokingly called me squidward. I never gave it much thought until one day it hit me: I’m grouchy, I play the clarinet, I draw and paint, I enjoy performing but I have poor social skills. It was a sad, introspective day.

[jaelyyymar]

That’s insane. 46, carrying around huge legs, tap dancing 4 feet, and being a father to 3. This guy must have some insane stories, I swear.

when I saw the costume I thought he died his hair! because I saw brown routes that turned turquoise. wow who would have thought it was a wig

[emilymorgan]

i got so sad when he said “if spongebob wants me here in 5 years”

[itzblu]

GOVE THE WHOLE CAST A TONY I LIVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH

[chloearendt]

Gavin Lee is such a great guy. I met him at stage door a couple years ago with my brother and mom. My brother said " I actually play the clarinet." and Gavin just laughed and said "well I can play three notes"

[train]

This man did an incredible job as Squidward

[hannahgarry]

This musical better get a Tony for costume

[amvwarsaw]

So Lilli got a vlog, Gavin got a character study, now give SOMETHING to Ethan, Danny, Brian, or Wes!!!

[froggiebcg]

He looks exactly like how we all imagined Squidward to look like as a human

[summerhollis]

If Gavin Lee ever looks at these comments, I just want to say thank you for getting me into theater and for being just plain amazing!

[carlottarobbins]

My two main reactions to this video:
1. "I have 3 kids now-"
Me, previously unaware: Awww... ❤❤
2. "I nearly die at the end of my number, and need an oxygen tank."
Me: I REALLY HOPE YOU'RE NOT BEING SERIOUS RIGHT

[thundahsenshi]

He does such an amazing job as Squidward! Absolutely love him

[lyricals]

Honestly. I think hes the only person who would absolutely NAIL Squidward

[allisonneiheiser]

I enjoy knowing that IF Spongebob is still on Broadway in five years, we wouldn't ever have a new Squidward, we'd still have the amazing Gavin Lee
