The same year “South Park” debuted, Parker wrote, directed and starred in the film Orgazmo. Two years later, Parker and Stone released the critically acclaimed feature film South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut. The musical, which Parker directed and co-wrote, earned an Oscar nomination for Best Song and the first-ever New York Film Critics Circle Award for an animated film. In 2004, the pair returned to theaters with Team America: World Police, an action movie cowritten and directed by Parker that starred a cast of marionettes. It has been a long-time dream of Parker’s to write a musical for Broadway.

They are currently writing an original stage musical called Up Here, directed by Alex Timbers.

South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut, which Stone produced and cowrote, earned an Oscar nomination and the New York Film Critics Circle Award for Best Animated Film.
