The Book of Mormon

0 upcoming performances in New York

Now running at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre, *The Book of Mormon* is a Broadway musical comedy by Trey Parker, Matt Stone, and Robert Lopez. It tracks two young Latter-day Saint missionaries sent to a rural Ugandan community, where their rehearsed optimism runs up against poverty, illness, and local violence. The show opened on Broadway in 2011 and quickly became a defining entry in New York’s post-2000 satirical musical tradition. Its sharpest insight is how it uses offense as a tool to examine belief, charity, and cultural misunderstanding.
