The Book of Mormon Tickets

What's it all about?

The Book of Mormon is the biggest Broadway musical smash in recent memory, and now it's set to repeat its phenomenal success in London. The first couple of months sold out faster than you can say 'Oh my god, they killed Kenny'. As such, we strongly encourage you to book now if you fancy seeing it anytime relatively soon. 

The show is the brainchild of South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, with Robert Lopez of Avenue Q. It won an incredible 9 Tony Awards after opening at New York’s Eugene O’Neill Theatre in March 2011.

Its soundtrack is the biggest selling cast album for forty years, reaching No. 3 on the U.S. Billboard chart and picking up the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theatre Album.

Sharply satirical, wildly irreverent, more than a bit rude but somehow sweet and endearing as well, The Book of Mormon gleefully skewers a truckload of sacred cows including organized religion, consumerism and the musical genre itself.

What's the story?

The Book of Mormon tells the story of two earnest young Mormon missionaries, Elder Kevin Price and Elder Arnold Cunningham.

Dispatched to a small town in Uganda to spread the word of the Latter Day Saints, they’re walloped by culture shock and end up in a showdown with a tyrannical warlord.

The duo are forced to confront their own beliefs before they can win the day, not to mention facing off with famine, poverty and AIDS. It may not sound like the stuff of uproarious comedy, but in the hands of spectacularly snarky South Parkers Parker and Stone, that’s exactly what it is.

Who's in it?

Book Of Mormon creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone are the genius creative duo behind the phenomenally successful, long-running animated TV comedy series South Park. Robert Lopez has previously enjoyed worldwide success as the progenitor of potty-mouthed puppet parody Avenue Q.

Gavin Creel and Jared Gertner play the lead roles of missionaries Elder Price and Elder Cunningham in The Book Of Mormon. The two men have previously played Price and Cunningham in the US tour of the show.

Creel is a fairly familiar face in the West End, having starred in Mary Poppins at the Prince Edward Theatre in 2006 and Hair at the Gielgud Theatre in 2010. His other theatre credits include La Cage Aux Folles and Thoroughly Modern Millie, both at Broadway’s Marquis Theatre.

Gertner’s onstage CV includes Ordinary Days with New York’s Roundabout Theatre Company and Band Geeks with the Goodspeed Musical Company. His TV roles include guest appearances in Ugly Betty and The Good Wife.

Who is The Book of Mormon suitable for?

Not recommended for children or the easily offended - this is adult stuff, for liberal-minded audiences. But if you love South Park's near-the-knuckle comedy and / or gloriously life-affirming, painfully funny musicals stuffed to the gills with take-home-tunes, then The Book Of Mormon is absolutely essential.

If you're a parent and you're OK with your kids watching South Park, then use your own judgement about letting them see this.
