The Book of Mormon is blasphemous, scurrilous, puerile and foul-mouthed – but also witty, clever and one of the sweetest musicals of all time. This excellent revival finds all the humour and heart in the outrageous, outrageously funny musical, which takes aim at the Mormons and their all-American version of Christianity. Written by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, together with Robert Lopez, the show follows two fledgling missionaries from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as they are sent on their first two-year mission to a remote village in AIDS-ravaged Uganda. If you need something to lift your spirits and renew your faith in humanity, this might do the trick! The production arrives in Adelade in December.

The New York Times calls it “the best musical of this century.” The Washington Post says, “It is the kind of evening that restores your faith in musicals.” And Entertainment Weekly says, “Grade A: the funniest musical of all time.” It’s The Book of Mormon, the nine-time 
Tony Award®-winning Best Musical.

This outrageous musical comedy follows the misadventures of a mismatched pair of missionaries, sent on a mission to a place that’s about as far from Salt Lake City as you can get. The Book of Mormon has truly become an international sensation.
