BWW Review: Say 'Hello' to the New Year with THE BOOK OF MORMON at The Paramount
by Jay Irwin - Jan 1, 2016


That unstoppable juggernaut that is 'The Book or Mormon' is back in Seattle and just as deliciously fun as ever. We all know how good the show is. We all know we're going to laugh our butts off at the crass humor while falling in love with the wonderful characters and infectious musical theater gold. So it all really just rests on the cast for this particular tour and let me say, they bring it as usual and even add in a few elements I've not seen in the show before.

BWW Review: THE BOOK OF MORMON is an Evening Full of Show Stopping Musical Hilarity and Heart
by Frank Benge - Dec 11, 2015


THE BOOK OF MORMON is a satirical musical with book, lyrics, and music by Trey Parker, Robert Lopez and Matt Stone. Parker and Stone are the creators of the animated series South Park, which just wrapped up its 19th season. Lopez is best known as a co-composer/co-lyricist of Avenue Q and Frozen. THE BOOK OF MORMON is the story of two young Mormon missionaries who are sent to Uganda for their first mission. The boys have a naive outlook on life and little in common with each other. When they try to spread "the word" among the locals they find their audience has many things on their minds and religion is the last thing they are thinking about.

BWW Reviews: BOOK OF MORMON Gives Big, Bright Wonderful Hello to Fresno
by Harmony Wheeler - Jul 17, 2015


Unconventional theatre that honors conventional, musical theatre classics. F bomb after F bomb that somehow manage to be surprisingly inoffensive. Hilarious joke after joke opposite shocking reality. "Book of Mormon" is full of pairs. It even begins with a very catchy number titled "Two by Two," in which young men pair off for their missions.
