The Book of Mormon follows two young missionaries who are sent to Uganda to try to convert citizens to the Mormon religion. One missionary, Elder Price, is an enthusiastic go-getter with a strong dedication to his faith, while his partner, Elder Cunningham, is a socially awkward but well meaning nerd whose tendency to embroider the truth soon lands him in trouble. Upon their arrival in Africa, Elders Price and Cunningham learn that in a society plagued by AIDS, poverty and violence, a successful mission may not be as easy as they expected.
"Absolutely hilarious and being a recovering Mormon there were certain things that were especially funny for me since they rang true. I have been to lots of Broadway plays 30+ and this is in my top 3 of all time."

"This show is hilarious and the music, singing & dancing are fantastic. I swear my wife and I were going to split a gut, we couldn’t stop laughing. Elder Price and Elder Cunningham in my mind steal the show.
At times the show is irreverent and profane when it pokes fun at organized religion’s efforts to proselytize less “civilized” people, but the pointed humor is both on target and well done, and certainly well deserved.
Probably not a show for everyone, especially if you are rigidly religious and can’t take a joke, or if you have a problem with f-bombs. Definitely not for younger children.

"Matt Stone and Trey Parker were a part of my childhood, and I could definitely tell their humor throughout the musical. “Turn It Off” is now an earworm I’ve been humming for the past few days. "

"While the play is undoubtedly satirical, poking fun at organized religion and cultural misunderstandings, it does so with a surprising degree of warmth and humanity. Beneath the laughter, there’s an underlying message about faith, friendship, and the power of belief that resonates deeply.
It challenges, entertains, and makes you laugh long after the curtain falls.
This show is a must-see."

"My daughter and I try to see one Broadway show a year; the tickets are usually her Christmas present. She had been begging to see The Book of Mormon, so I finally gave in and bought the tickets for this past Christmas.
I was a bit hesitant, but I have to say my daughter and I agree, this is the best show we have ever seen! It will be tough to top this one."

"My first broadway experience was one for the ages. Trains and planes and winter weather got us to the theater right on time
It was my daughter and my first experience with a musical. It didn’t disappoint.
We love South Park so it was an easy pick for us. That said it became live action laughs and one joke leading to another. The cast was amazing and the crowd was very happily engaged. "
