It’s their first Broadway musical and it’s a smash! From the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, comes The Book of Mormon — a hilarious and irreverent new musical that’s taken Broadway by storm.
Written in collaboration with Avenue Q’s Tony Award-winning writer Robert Lopez, this outrageous show follows a pair of teenage Mormon missionaries who are sent to a remote and hostile village in Uganda to spread the word of their faith. The result? A riotous blend of show-stopping musical numbers, sharp satire, and jaw-dropping humour.
But while it pushes the boundaries of good taste — with profanity and provocation in abundance — The Book of Mormon is surprisingly heartfelt, humane, and even moral. It’s been widely embraced by audiences, including many Mormons themselves.
Broadway Acclaim and Plans for London
In an interview with The Times (16 March 2011), Trey Parker revealed his hopes to bring The Book of Mormon to London as well as launching a US tour.
Last week, Jon Stewart of The Daily Show heaped praise on the production, declaring:
“It’s so good it makes me f**king angry.“
The show has found the perfect balance between mockery and meaning, managing to be satirical yet respectful, and always thoroughly entertaining.
