Book of Mormon
Segerstrom

What Is The Book of Mormon?

The Book of Mormon is a musical comedy created by Trey Parker, Matt Stone, and Bobby Lopez. Parker and Stone are the creators of the long-running animated series South Park, while Lopez co-created Avenue Q and later wrote the songs for Disney’s Frozen. The musical premiered on Broadway in March 2011 at the Eugene O’Neill Theatre and won nine Tony Awards that year, including Best Musical, Best Original Score, Best Book, and Best Direction. It also won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Album.

The story follows Elder Price, an ambitious young Mormon missionary, and Elder Cunningham, his well-meaning but hapless companion, as they are sent to a village in northern Uganda to convert the local population. What they find is a community dealing with poverty, disease, and a local warlord — challenges that their mission training never prepared them for. Elder Cunningham’s creative approach to scripture leads to unexpected results, and the show builds toward a message about the power of stories — even made-up ones — to bring people together. It is irreverent, profane, and surprisingly warm-hearted.

The National Tour Cast

The current North American touring production features Sam McLellan as Elder Price, Diego Enrico as Elder Cunningham, Keke Nesbitt as Nabulungi, and Craig Franke as Elder McKinley, with Jarius Miquel Cliett as Mafala Hatimbi and Dewight Braxton Jr. as the General. The ensemble brings the show’s Tony-winning choreography to life across tour stops at major venues nationwide. Cast is subject to change; check the official Book of Mormon tour website for the latest cast information.
