"A spectacular, rather perfect Broadway musical not only grounded in a serious love and understanding of the traditions that make a Broadway musical great but also filled with love for the very flawed, mortal characters who populate this romp."
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
"Parker and Stone have created one of the freshest original musicals in recent memory. It has tuneful songs, clever lyrics, winning characters, explosive laughs and disarmingly intimate moments. "
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
"While The Book of Mormon packs plenty of blissful profanity, sacrilege and politically incorrect mischief, the defining quality of this hugely entertaining show is its sweetness."
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
"The show is blissfully original, irreverent, outspoken and hilarious. And all that's tucked inside good -- no, great -- old-fashioned musical."
New York Daily News
Joe Dziemianowicz
"These numbers are witty, ridiculous, impeccably executed and genuinely stirring."
"Ive never laughed so hard, but honestly the most fun was watching how talented the entire cast was. It was great!"

"The show has a fabulous start that captures the audience's attention. Sets the stage (pun intended) for what comes next.
Interweaving the basic beliefs of Mormonism adds to the comedy as it suggests that these events were questionable but serve as the basis for the religion. The comic asides about the missionary assignments and the acolytes ways of dealing with uncomfortable facts is just delightful. Highly recommended."

You will laugh long after the curtain closes
"It points out the silliness in much of the human ways of thinking and the way society wants us to speak and behave. If you are a person who is willing to embrace the humor of it all, you will not be disappointed.
As for someone who would not consider themselves a theater devotee, I would go back over and over to this play. Best 2+ hours I think I've ever had watching something live. And I am now trying to learn all the songs - something I never thought I would do.
It deserves every award its won!"

Pleasantly Surprised
"I didn’t know much about the show, just that it Has been a success on Broadway for years! My son ( 31 yrs old) has been wanting to see, so we went. I splurged on great seats and was so happy! The show was funny, interesting, and so very entertaining. The talent on that stage was impressive. The voices, the acting and the dancing all incredible, while holding your attention to the plot. Each actor/actress was extremely talented. I only wish I had a quarter of their gifts! Very clever writing and incredible set as well. I just am amazed at the talent on that stage!! The tap dancing was fabulous !!! Thank you to the Orchestra was well , the music was beautiful , fun and uplifting ! I highly recommend The Book of Mormon , for adults only. This is not a show for anyone under the age of 18 due to the language used and I really don’t think they would understand the plot. We loved the show completely, did I mention the dancing 🤗 Do yourselves a favor and enjoy a good laugh, beautiful voices, great acting and again .. awesome dance moves !!"

Hilariously Funny
"Didn't really know what to expect, but knew it was going to be funny. What I didn't know was that there were going to be serious and compelling social and religous issues addressed. Good for kids? The female circumsicion theme might be a little dark for some children, but a great show all around."

Waited 14 years to see it in NY, favorite show yet
"The actors were amazing, my wife and I just had an amazing time. It was funny, crude, and the actors absolutely crushed it across the board. I couldn't be more positive about my experience. I laughed the entire time, I highly recommend seeing this Book of Mormon especially if you're familiar with Trey Parker and Matt Stone's work outside of South Park"

About
The Book of Mormon
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.
