A new youth production is underway in Jersey that is taking audiences down to Bikini Bottom.

I am of course talking about SpongeBob SquarePants the show, put on by Jersey Youth Performing Arts (JYPA). 

The cast and crew are made up of youngsters aged 9 - 21 years old, who have been trying their hand at both performing and working behind the scenes. 

14 year old Orla Brady is in the title role of SpongeBob SquarePants. 

She tells us what the performance is all about: 

"It's basically, if you watch SpongeBob as a kid, it's basically the exact same thing. It's SpongeBob, Patrick and Sandy and they're on a mission to save Bikini Bottom.

"We're a very inclusive group and we just want everyone to have a chance and have a go. I think this show sums up our personality as a group.

"Just come in with big expectations, its amazing and you will enjoy it."

This show is running from 29 October - 2 November at Haute Vallée Theatre. 

A special inclusive and relaxed performance is taking place at 2:30pm on 31 October. 

Tickets can be found on Eventbrite.
