The Book of Mormon musical is a box office powerhouse written by the creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and the co-creator of Avenue Q, Robert Lopez (composer for Disney’s 2013 Frozen film). Parker and Stone were inspired by their own South Park episode “All About Mormons”, which first aired on Comedy Central in 2003. The pair allegedly visited Salt Lake City, Utah to conduct research for the show.
About The Book of Mormon Musical
The Book of Mormon follows the story of two young Mormon missionaries, Elder Price and Elder Cunningham, working to spread the word of the Latter Day Saints to the locals in a small town in Uganda. The LDS church members realise how daunting their task is when they discover the villagers are more concerned with the AIDS epidemic, oppression, and starvation.
Anyone familiar with South Park or the work of Trey Parker and Matt Stone would know that The Book of Mormon can get rather bawdy and crass at times! That being said, despite Parker and Stone’s in-your-face subject matter, the musical never received a backlash from members of the Church of Latter-Day Saints. In fact, the Mormon Church even stated the musical may be “entertaining for a day”, while also going on to add that “the book is always better” when it comes to theatrical adaptations.
With its sharp satire and unforgettable songs, it’s no surprise that Book of Mormon tickets continue to be in high demand. Whether you’re a longtime fan or seeing it for the first time, securing your Book of Mormon London tickets now is the best way to guarantee a night of non-stop laughter!
